Typical pitbull front fork-bottom stand will be just fine.

 

confirmed. I'm sitting on one now. You'll have to adjust the stand of course to miss the ABS assembly.

 

Woodcraft makes a nice under fork stand that is abs friendly. It has a shorter post on the left side to help prevent damage to exposed ABS sensor/wires.

 

Yes, I have the woodcraft and it works well. Just be aware for tire removal, you’ll want a center post stand. The forks can pivot if you use the woodcraft fork lift model (& possibly all of those types)? But it works great for putting on tire warmers or just lifting the front end off the ground.

 

I believe pitbull also has a stand that specifically works with the r1. I went with a head lift style from vortex.

Thanks for the info

 

I have a Pitbull with the ABS friendly adapter (left side)

 

Where are you placing the bottom of the stand?

 

If you are talking about the Pitbull one it's right between the axle and the caliper. It fits in that gap there. The only thing they did was for the ABS is make one a little shorter so it clears the wheel sensor. Pretty simple. the nice thing about it is if you have multiple bikes you don't need stands for each one. you can just purchase the adapter which is fairly cheap and swap it as needed.

I just temporarily unbolt the sensor. 🙅‍♂️

 

I use the Woodcraft Under Fork Front Stand - Pin Lift Style. Love it.

Race Stands All stands are the same right? These are the last stands you will need to purchase.

Thanks, I think I will be getting that one 26-0305 under fork front stand

 

Wouldnt a center pin stand be the best? Full flexibility in removing your wheels and pull apart the whole front end? I'm in the market for a new stand, likely going pitbull to match my rear stand, but just need to know which is most versatile for the r1. I dont need the stand to work work with other bikes, but definitely a stand that will allow me to full disassemble the wheel and brakes for full servicing.

 

I was also looking into the Bursig center stand. It is a little expensive but I think it will be a good idea
