Hey guys i need some advice. Im looking for a front race stand. One that does not require the removal of the fender like most sites are advertising. Any suggestions or pics would be much appreciated.

What are you looking to accomplish with a front stand?

or

fork removal

Pit Bull New-Front Stem Stand. Doesn't require fender removal but you do need to be carefull.

for a sec there i was expecting the word search to pop up.

And as for purpose. Mainly tire removal/brakes and rim cleaning.

I use a Redline front stand. They are sturdy and well made.

The Pitbull is the industry standard.

If you need any more info shoot me a PM.

I use the Vortex front stand. Nice construction and not as expensive as the Pit Bulls. Although the Pits are the "Best."

Just make sure you get the proper pin that goes into the triple clamp hole.

I don't have to remove front fender BUT you have to be EXTRA CAREFUL bout getting the arm underneath. Also, if you're real conscious about getting the bottom of the nose fairing scratched, you'll need to place some towels.

And the link to the exact product w/ appropriate pin size:

nice gtr, do you have to remove the plastic guard under the nose to make it fit in the tree hole?

Do it Right the First Time Around - Get yourself Pitbull stands.

NOPE!! Just be careful and take it slow. Not much clearance like the GSXR's or any other smaller bike.

Will it work/fit it the front is lowered 1 1/4"

I do not think there is enough clearance with the bike lowered.

Using a stem lift on my bike not lowered was a tight fit.

That is one of the reasons I went with a bottom fork lift stand. At the track unsing tire warmers and for front tire changes it works just fine.
