Default Stands for cbr600

I already purchased the vortex rear stand and love it. Any ideas on what stand will be best for the front. Money is not an issue I just want what is better for me and the bike in the long run. I own a 2006 cbr600rr

These are what i was thinking. Let me know.

I have a pitbull stand for the front. It goes into the steering stem and lifts the bike that way. I find it better, cause you can move the front wheel from side to side. I have included a link. They are expensive but are great stands.

not really just the Pitbull ones, when i do eventually replace my current univ stand w the pitbull one, ill prob get the spool one, although they do have a spool/pad one as well. Also if you get spools get black or chrome, ive heard if you get colored ones the paint quickly scratches off while putting up on stand, makes sense actually

Pit Bull FTW!

The 03 - 06 600RR all use the standard pin (I have an 03). The only issue is that you have to remove or loosen the horn, since it is in the way of the stem hole - no big deal on a track bike as I have no horn, but would be an extra step on a street bike. By the way, one pin comes with the stand.

I use the fork style stand at the track, but the steering stem pin style at home - since it allows you to remove forks.
