OK, no offense and not to be negative, but to me a fork-lifting stand is nearly useless for anything but putting on tire warmers, and are you doing that? You can't take the front wheel off, can't adjust the shock preload or remove it because the spring is compressed. What good is this? A headstock stand that lifts the bike and frees the front suspension is useful, this is not, so much.
