Hi
I would get the skylift type. But for me nothing works to lift the front. The tree and the skylift does not fit my bike so I just use a floor jack and jack stands.

Just a thought: every spring it seems that I see multiple Pitbull stands show up on Craigslist for a song! And they are heavy duty to the extreme IMHO.
Now if Abba would make a Top Mount sky lift that was built into/drops down from the Ceiling that would be epic. Then I could scoot right under there on my little rolling Washbucket/Shop stool unhindered by that Tarantula leg setup they have.

I think the issue with the Abba for many of us is that nearly all of us already have a rear stand and spools on the swingarm for routine chain maintenance and some, for tire changing. Many of us got some type of front stand, fork or triple tree to go with the rear. Even with just a rear stand the price of the Abba compared to a front stand of any type is kinda…high. 
I had six bikes at one time and only two had center stands so I have two rear and two front stands. I can put both bikes in the air for less than the cost of one Abba.

At stock height does it clear the fender when lifting by the triple tree?

Looking at Pitbull as well and like 60+ I’d like to know the clearance as well.
All the lower triple clamp front stands clear the front fender and fit under the nose at stock height.
Throw a towel over the fender in case you drop the arm putting it in, to prevent scratches.
After you lift it once, you'll see how easy it is.

I think I’m going to order the Pitbull front lift. Anyone have a coupon code or place to order?
I’ve ordered direct through Pitbull before just trying to see if there are any savings to be had.

Last week Pit Bull quoted me $365. To my door for the bottom fork lift and $490. To my door for the bottom fork triple tree combo. I may get the Abba Sky Lift.

Be interested in checking it out in person when you get it. The Abba looks tempting, with only one bike to use it on tho it may be a bit overkill for me… I’m not ruling it out tho.
For a front lift only?
I hope that’s both
That price is for the front wheel combo fork/triple tree lift, does not include the rear wheel lift
