When you had the wheel off did you replace the wheel bearings? If so, maybe one is not seated all the way? Ed

I've used tie down straps and hung my buddies yzf600 from my garage rafters before to take both wheel assemblies off.

If you still have the center stand it will hold the rear wheel off the ground. Ed

I officially feel like an idiot lol. The spacers are backwards. Looking more at the parts diagram cleared everything up. I think what I will do is come up with some sort of 2x2 or something with the finger lift and ratchet strap bike to lift. I am afraid of bike tipping over. Thanks everyone for your help. Guess it pays to gain knowledge :)
