I had heard that some can damage the front plastics..... anybody use one that does not and is easy to fit ?

 

I have T-Rex Racing stands. Once you figure out the right height for the front stand it works great and does not touch the front fender.

Cheers, i had a look on the web site but could not find the headstock ones, just the usual front paddock stands.

 

The triple tree stands are listed near the bottom of the list under race stands.

+1 on the T-Rex stands, I don't have the triple stand but I love the swing arm and front fork stands. Bought my first set 4 years ago with my first bike, sold 'em when I needed some $ and that was a mistake. Got another set as soon as I got my 954. They are quality stands, and best of all - they are cheap! Look on eBay, I ordered mine off there, usually get front & rear stands for under $120 (not sure about triple tree stand though)

 

Cheers for that, just need to find someone in the UK who supplies them now.
