I have used a regular automotive floor jack under the motor, but I spread the weight out by placing a board between the "shoe" of the jack and the bottom of the motor. I strongly recommend strapping the front end (front wheel) into something to stabilize the bike whilst (I love that word) jacking it up... the bike can become unstable if you don't.
