I just bought a 2001 M600 and it didn't come with a front fender. Want to get one to protect the fork seals and prevent myself from getting blasted with water on rainy days (I ride daily rain or shine).
I read that I can swap on a fender from the 848 and 1098 which in my opinion look a lot more sporty than the stock OEM fenders on these bikes.
Looks to me like it would be a direct plug and play. A little worried that the back of the fender may not provide enough wheel coverage. Looks a little short in the back and am wondering if anyone has any experience riding in the rain with these fenders.
Also... a picture would be helpful too ;D
I don't think you can get both.
Don't think 848+ fender will fit.

i think it's the 996 or 748 fenders that will fit your bike.

[thumbsup] Correct and also some of the SuperSports
Not sure, but I think ST2/3/4 fits and you can add an ExtendFenda to cover some more of you and the bike.
The new monster fenders also fit.

Interesting. Well I am glad that I made this post before I bought anything. Does anyone have any pictures of a Monster with a 998 or 748?

this is a very common mod, and a google image search will provide you with some idea of how it looks. however, if you dont like it, i would be happy to trade you my stock black front fender (of an 06 s2r1000) for a CF 998 front fender. ;D

You will need one for a umm don't remember the year or newer to get the correct bolt spacing.

Well isn't that anticlimactic... Thanks for the pic though! Looks great.
Edit: I stole this picture from Gitter. Looks like its a 2012 796 and I really like the fender. Any chance it would fit my bike?

I think the SS has different spacing, but most others are the same i though.
i have a 696 and I'm using a 916 era front fender.
i have a ST2 and it uses the same spacing.
and pretty sure the 848 will also work.
the 999/S4RS obviously are different as well as the SS I mentioned.
The naked bikes tend to have the longer back end

Pre 99 SS is different, 99 up SS is the same.

Here is what
supertjeduc did to fit an 848 fender to his monster:
