R1200S & R1100S front stand

I've got an ABBA rear stand for my R1100S, which apparently will also fit my R1200S.
Thinking of getting a front fork stand to fit both bikes - mainly to allow front & rear wheel removal.
This German outfit - http://www.motea.com/en/ - sell a variety of front wheel paddock stands which appear to fit both bikes.
I've never used a front stand before & am not sure which one to go for.
Any thoughts?
Cheers

This is a similar model to mine for my 12s, when you remove the wheel/spindle you just need to keep the triangle sections facing down otherwise you can't get the spindle out, I always loosen off the main bolts before jacking up, works well and is very stable.
