a few to choose from, just depends on your budget: T-Rex, Redline, PitBull, Lockhart-Phillips, etc. The stands I used for my Gen I work just fine for my Gen II.

for front tire removal, need a stand that lifts from the steering stem, like pic below:

or maybe get this centerstand from REDLINE

Redline, site sponser has everything you may need.
Good prices, quality products and excellent CS...

My PitBull allows front tire removal....

I've used the redline industrial stands for 5 years now with no problems. I throw a couple 2X4s under the front stand to remove the front tire without removing anything but the brake calipers. What can I say, rednecks improvise

Vortex Pin stand front and Vortex rear. You have to use caution when you position the pin into the steering stem so you do not ding up your fender. Need 2x4s to get the front wheel out. Dont go cheap! It is your baby you are lifting up!!!!

If you're only interested in removing the front tire and brakes (not forks), then you can save some money by just getting a rear stand and then putting the front forks on car jack stands. I just pick the bike up under the nose and slide the stands in with my feet. I do it all the time regardless of garage or track.
