update.

Managed to escape to the bike shed for long enough to get the Monster up on the front stem stand.
It turns out that the hybrid forks seem to be dimensionally identical (length wise) to my Sie forks. Same tube length, same axle position. There is more stanchion available as the bottom casting is more compact, so whether or not the forks have more travel will remain to be seen. ("Motorcycle Specs" gives both models the same travel @120mm.)

The irony of all this is that the adjustable Showas in my Monster were fully serviced by MCT 3500 miles ago and work better than they ever have in my ownership!
