I've had great luck with this jig, and had the entire front-end off the bike to change the head bearings. I trust it as long as the bike's center-stand is locked, and the bike is positioned on a level and solid floor surface, and the bike isn't moved around too much while wrenching on it. Best to break-loose the nuts and bolts before jacking it, then final tighten them after the tire is back on the floor.

I have a cheap triple stand i got on amazon and have used it on my kz650. its OK, it has a couple different pins so you can use it on a wide range of bikes.
