Ok, so if I use a 3/4" to 1" block under the center stand can I remove both wheels at the same time?

With a front stand too, yes. BTW - I used a 2x4 as recommended in other posts and FJRTech, not sure about a 1" block.

Also mine is not a Bike Effects stand, just to clarify. These types as BE is showing are great!

Thanks Jeff. I have been considering one for a while, but wasn't sure which would work best on an FJR.

I just ordered the front stand, but am also curious to know if any of your rear stands will work on the Feej?

Bluesman, thanks for the pic and info. I've never used stands before and don't know much about them. But, I don't much like using a floor jack under the pipes, though many seem to do so without a problem. A front stand seems the way to go. Thanks.

You're welcome.
BTW - The front axle "pinch bolt", on the right fork, must be removed before you lift the front end with the stand. You'll see why....

Been using the front stand for my R1 and it works excellent from Handy.

[SIZE=12pt]You need to remove rear first then use the stand to lift the front after the rear is off.[/SIZE]

I use 3/4" plywood under the center stand when doing the rear tire. Havent done the front yet, would the 3/4" plywood work well with the front stand? Jeff

Late answer but yes, it should be just fine.
