Motorcycle stand for a bike with ABS

I am looking to purchase my first stand, so I dont know much about the topic.

I was looking at two amazon options that seem sensible, but I noticed on Pit Bull's website, that my bike requires "ABS-right swivel to lift under the forks"

What does that mean?



These are the stands I was looking at. Would I need to purchase an additional right swivel from the manufacturers in this case to attach to the stand?

My bike is a Yamaha R3 with ABS

Thanks folks.
 
Some front stands lift up the motorcycle by the bottom of the forks, cradled by two spools.

Some motorcycles have a plug and wire for the ABS sensor located right near the bottom of the forks that interferes with the placement of one of the spools:

So what you can do is cut one of the spools so it doesn't butt up against the sensor, and potentially damage it:

Or you can buy the pitbull swivel adapter with the spool cut out for you:
