I found this link whilst looking for some clip-ons, and was amazed at the price on these Cycle Cat triples.  FYI, I am in no way affiliated with Oncycles, ...yada yada.  Have never ordered from this website before, but I wish I needed one of these triples as $90 seems worth the risk.

Oncycles used to be CycleCat (kinda).

Be aware that those triples are only for a superbike fork conversion (53mm diameter) on a monster.  They won't work with stock monster forks (50mm/54mm diameter).

You do have 50 mm forks.  The triple  found on this link is 53 mm to accommodate a SBK conversion which would use 53 mm forks.  With your current forks this triple will not fit your bike.

Yeah, those CC's are sweet. I had one on my 00' 750. Now my option is SpeedyMoto. Their's are pretty nice as well, and with their new 3.5 rise clip-ons, I cant wait til I can afford them.

I got the top triple clamp for my 2001 Cromo when I did the SBK conversion.  One of the best deals Ive gotten on an aftermarket part. 

Piece is flawless to my laymans eye except for a little "X" scratched on the underside.

Since these have 53mm bores, I wonder... has anyone shimmed their top triple?  I'm about to install 900SS Showas on my M800 using the Monster top triple but will be using clip-ons.  So I'm stuck with the ugly unused handlebar mounts.  One of these CC triples with 3mm of shim might be a better setup.  Could be fugly too, I suppose.

I got the same thing a few years back from the Catshop or whatever they called it. It was listed as a "blem". Can't find a blemish on it, anywhere. It matches their clipons (which I also have) exactly and they were non-blem. Go figure.

Also of note, I believe the superbike conversion triples still use the small diameter hole for the frame (the third hole of the triple).
