Hi There,

Does anyone use a front headstock stand on a 1998 Kawasaki ZX9R C-1?

If so what in your opinion is the best model.

Happy biking

same old question...
you pay your money. take your choice. Harris Performance are one of the best made and looking, Ally section construction.
or half the price for round steel tubed ones that wobble loose at the joints.
I would buy the best you can afford http://www.harris-performance.com/acatalog/Online_Catalog_Harris_Paddock_Stands_8.html £125+vat
Sealey http://www.sealey.co.uk/PLPageBuilder.asp?id=20&method=mViewProduct&productid=14520 £108 inc vat
or
do a google search then look for weak points like wheels/axles, joints, universal ones need adaptor pins that don't fit tight then look at positives like braces to keep stiff.

really , its no good suggesting one that I would use as I cant afford ones that bikes could fall off, also you would probably need a rear one as well as per some descriptions.

How did it go? I bought one from the bay, from a reputable dealer, with the interchangeable pins for the various manufacturers. Had it a couple of years now, and still working fine, it gets loads of use as well :)
