before i got my front stand, i had my wife hold it while i work on the front of the bike. i just feed her red bull and energy bars every 1.5 hours to keep her energy up while i work on the bike.

here she is...

get riding already mang...if you're very afraid, tighten it tight enough and use thread locker so the bolt won't back...in this case i would say too tight is better than too loose...why? cause the last thing you need is to do a wheelie and have the fork tube pop up and hit your face! mauahahahahh...but there's the lower and upper and downward force that keep it in check too so it will most likely not happen.
