Default Front Stand Options

Hi all,

Has anyone got any suggestions for a stand that will lift the front end of the bike without weighting the suspension.
I already have an ABBA stand for the rear.

TIA

I talked to the Pit Bull rep a Moto GP and he said their under the cowl front stand works for the S1K but you have to drill a hole in the plastics to get to the triple tree where the pin should go in. Also the bursig stand will allow you to lift the whole bike by the frame.

I asked him which to buy the triple one or the fork one and that was what he told me. I you have one for another bike you may just need the right pin.
