With a Center Stand do you even need a front stand?

Don't knock it till you try it. I'm just uncomfortable using the bottom of the engine as a jack point. Much rather use the frame. If I was going to pull the front wheel, I'd add some 4x4 blocks under the lower frame members but for checking the steering head, this works great.
