Removing both wheels for new tyres

The recession has finally bitten me, and I'm planning to save �20 by taking loose wheels in to get my tyres fitted. First time in 25 years!

I've never had either wheel off the XTR, let alone both at once. Luckily I do have a centre stand fitted, but if anyone has any words of wisdom I'd be very grateful. I have the Haynes manual which will detail each wheel, but probably not which order, how to support the bike as each wheel comes off, and how to avoid being pinned to the garage wall by a falling motorcycle.
