My only reference is the "Wethead" models and the exhaust pipes are hung below the engine case.

Weight of your bike with fluids comes out at just over 604lbs so regarding weight the bike is well within the jacks lifting capacity.

Finally decided to buy a proper lift table.
Cap 1000 lbs. Both air/hydraulic.
No more bending down for me.
