    Default 2015 F3-S Jack stand locations?

    Looking for advice, or even better yet, pictures on where to place jack stands (front and rear) to support 2015 F3-S? Front seems pretty obvious......but still welcome input.....not as sure about the rear. Have read different posts about not using the bottom of the shock? Seems like the best spot. Thanks in advance for any input!

    Don't mean to butt in on an F3 thread, but here's some pics to look at.

    Thanks for the reply’s! Looks like I have two options for the back support.

    Gwolf - not sure I would have considered the back of the frame location but I like it. Assuming the Spyder does not want to tip backward when supported there? It is getting closer to the center of the bike. But the again most of the motor is in front of that location too.

    Engine and transmission is forward of that point. Very little weight on any place behind the swing arm pivot. It won't tip backward. If you have loaded saddlebags and trunk, you might need to put it farther back, but without the extra weight it is rock solid on the rear of the frame.
