What I did, prior to getting the centerstand, was to position the jack under the bike as far forward as possible (back jack arm just behind the sidestand/sensor).  Then I put a short piece of 4x4 (positioned horizontally lengthwise) between the rear jack arm and the swingarm.  This worked just fine for removing the rear wheel at various times.

Also note that I also had problems initially getting my Craftsman jack to slide under the frame.  What I found out was that the rear tire that was installed (Bridgestone something-or-other) by the PO was smaller then the stock Dunlop (both 150's though).  When I replaced the Bridgestone, due to a screw and several finishing nails, with a stock 555 the jack slid easily under the frame while on the sidestand.
