Front paddock stand?

Is anyone out there using a paddock stand in the front? If so, which one?

I tried using the same stands that I had in the past for my SV1000. The rear worked great. However, the front doesn't get that big honkin' wheel/tire completely off the ground. I think I need something taller.

I have a Vortex rear stand and I really like it. So I just ordered this one for the front along with the 21mm pin so that I can replace my tires when I get back from Alaska. I used a digital caliper to measure the bottom of the steering stem and it was 21.5mm so there may be a little play but the next size up was 23mm. I will update after I get a chance to use it.

I got the t-rex headlift stand for another bike that takes the 19mm pin...its a little small for the ftr, but still holds it fine, just has a little play...the adjustable height allows me to use it with the taller FTR wheel.
