Rechecked on my end, looks like i need to recalibrate my eyeballing, i was 10mm off! Good catch, i guess this is a prime example of a second opinion being a good thing
. Thanks.
I made doubly sure that i got one of the transplant forks lined up in the triple before i pulled the other fork so i didn't alter the ride height.
I hope your idea with the 848 spring works out, it would be another good option for those looking to upgrade their suspension without going to a whole new setup and undoubtedly more $$$. Aside from the Ohlins route the only other option I've seen done was an 1100 going to a Penske with Eibach spring but i think you already know about that one, i remember seeing at least one comment from you in that board.

yeah changing out for a single rate spring is a quick fix for the soft variable rate spring.

If you have a M796....
You can mount a set of the Showa SBK forks for an 848/1098/1198,
or you can use the Ohlins FGRT803 front forks.
The M796 has a 15mm offset rotor, so no spacers are needed.
All you need is:
1pr Ohlins FGRT803's -or- 1pr Showa forks from an 848/1098/1198
1 - Front axle & nut from an 848/1098/1198
Mill your stock TOP clamp from 50mm to 53mm -or- buy a 53mm top clamp that
is appropriate for the M796.
Everything else....should just bolt up & go !

woah/// 15mm offset rotors? 5 bolt or 6 bolt?
the lower triple is 54 on monster so that will have to be shimmed. or is that 53 now?
and the spacers on the axle are the same as the sbk?
have you done this?
edit: 5 bolt rotors... shit

Lower clamp on the M796 is 53mm already,
and the bike is using a 5 bolt 15mm offset rotor
atop the 10 spoke wheels.
You can always fit an 848/1098/1198 front wheel
and rotors as well.
Keep in mind the 1098/1198 rotors are 330mm
the 848 rotors are identical but 320mm

Not sure about...across the board, but its been the
case on most all of the M796's we've encountered.

I don't think you gave out bad info...
I just think that Ducati has several different variable parts
that they use from model to model and year to year.
Just an Example:
Most ALL of the parts between an 848 and 1098/1198
are interchangable. However, you would think that the
handlebars are all identical...and they are in length and
diameter, but the 848 has the mounting holes for the
left hand control drilled in slightly different places than
the 1098/1198
Just wanted to pass along the info on the M796 for fitment
of the SBK front end that it is slightly different than the M696
as most people think they are identical and they aren't.

any confirmation on whether or not it's only the marzocchi forks that have the correct offset for the sbk fork upgrade for the 796?
asking because i'm tempted to do the mod, but i have a showa front fork...

just a fyi, the 796 brake rotors are a 5 hole 10mm offset. you'll still need to shim it, i'm not sure what motion did to have it fit in perfectly.

I just snagged a set of the Showa's for my 796, Can anyone point me to the measurements on the dimensions for the Brake rotor shims(I.e. Bolt pattern dimensions, outside Diameter as well as Inside Diameter)? Hopefully while I'm assigned to our CNC shop I can find a used OEM Upper Triple clamp to bore out to 53MM otherwise it looks like I'll be spending the 285 for the conversion triple with link below.
