Considering the amount of customization and modification some of us do to our Monsters, I would think adapting a round headlight to fit the Triple wouldnt be that big a deal. That's what sheet metal is for  That would be some really heavy modification. Have you looked at how the headlight and cluster are mounted on the Speed Triple? |

I like it - makes the bike look very modern.

The 696 headlight looks surprisingly good on the Triple. It almost looks as if it was meant to be. Good work! I agree, the angular look of the bike really lends itself to the Monster headlight. I'm another that also thinks dual headlights might look better on the new monster. |

One of my best friends rides a Street Triple R. I think the dual headlight set up on it make it really ugly. I agree with Duccarlos though, if Triumph made a street triple that looked like that I would probably buy one.

Not attached to the forks. There is a bracket (or something) that extends from the steering stem.

The Triple looks good with the monster headlight. Looks much better then the newer dual set up.
