If you have the stock pipes on it, you can lift pretty-much anywhere you need-to, they can take it.
I've used jackstands under the case-savers/crashbars on the front of the frame, if you have them. Jack the bike up and place them and then lower the bike on them.
If you need to remove the front wheel for a tire change, or for doing steering head work, and you retained the centerstand, I just put it onto the centerstand, and jack the front end under the front of the motor, and then use cribbing under the casesavers to hold the balance point towards the rear, so the front end is off the ground.
With the bike on the centerstand, it doesn't take much jacking to tilt the front end into the air. Just make sure that you hold it elevated securely.

But, does the same hold true on it, can I lift from the oil pan?

Sorry, I didn't notice. I'm letting those guys who own one speak to this.
