Now seem to have got a successful 2 rocks and up technique going on that (so far) seems to work.

Hi, not getting at you but clearly that technique isn't working and it certainly isn't the correct way to do it. I'm assuming the bike has stock suspension linkages on the rear, in which case no rocking is required - or advisable.Right foot on the stand, right hand holding the grip built into the left passenger footpeg. Left hand keeping the bars straight.Push down with your foot firmly and the bike will lift itself over and up. You don't need to heave and you don't need to lift the bike's weight with your arms. Push down with your foot and guide the bike over steadily with your arms.

It's body weight through the foot that does the lifting.
