Checking oil

Is there a better way of checking the oil on a 748s than getting someone to sit on it?

All previous bikes had a dipstick, When its on the Abba stand the level is tipped forwards as it lifts the bike so high. Is a paddock stand better for checking oil?

I'm worried about the level after I dropped it from stalling the other week. Am I likely to have lost any oil from dropping it?

Anyone got a better way of checking it, or is it just a case of geting the missus to sit on the bike each time
