i will eventually need both the front and rear because it will make it the easiest to work with. Worst case i may buy a pit bull front stand as i know i will need one soon...

I just aquired one of these for free....willing to let you borrow it if you'd like. Not sure that mine is a craftman but it looks very similar.

You've got me....all I know is that it was used for a YZF-600R. I'm sure theres a way you could make with work with some blocks of wood or something....
Do R6's have a centerstand? When I had to pull the forks on my bike to replace the seals I just put it up on the centerstand and used a floor jack under the pan to push the bike up in the front, leaving it resting on the stand,reartire, and jack..
