    front stand

    What do you guys recomend for a front stand? What kind? Pin or triple tree? Brand? I have a Lockhart Phillips rear stand already. Just trying to get ideas for a front stand. Thanks Oh yeah and if anyone has one they are getting rid of let me know also. Thanks Chad

    Why the best of course: Pit Bull!

    EDIT: For what it's worth, I will not touch an LP stand (front or rear), nor will I ever allow one to be used on my bike. I've heard way too many horror stories about the metal giving way and dumping peoples' bikes unexpectedly.

    I could use a front stand too... but that's down the road.
    I can say by my experience with the rear stand --- I agree with Ralph --- PIT BULL all the way!
    ...Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.

    I agree, Pit Bull's are a lot nicer stand.
    If God told me I was going to die riding a motorcycle, I'd still ride.
    If he told me I was going to die in my sleep, I'd become an insomniac.

    Pitbull all around and no complaints. I have the older style pitbull front stand, but got a hell of a deal on it. The new ones suppose to have a better design, much like the Woodcraft stands. You could get the forklift version, but then you can't work on your front suspension.
