Hi has any member ever used a front paddock stand on a 1800gl Goldwing 2011 model

Hey, where ye been hiding mate? Been almost a year I have paddock stands front and rear for my RC51, but have never considered a front on the Wing. Interesting idea, especially for removing the front wheel. I'll talk with a couple of my dealer buds and see if any of their mechanics do it. We use elevated benches and stands/blocks in the shop here.

use on 2011 model

I will be hard to use on a 2011 model as there was no such 2011Goldwing.

Good point mm, I just wasn't going to shout out loud with that one. Any 2011 purchase would have been a left-over 2010 model, of which there were many available. 1800's all have 'naked' fork legs so if the stand is beefy enough for the Wing's heft, no reason it wouldn't work AFAIK. Just remember with the weight of a Wing, caution is a good thing and proper balance and floor level as well.
