Maybe too modern style for your Monster? Danmoto have affordable cans closer to stock look.

You'll need some specific link pipes to fit those and then hope their bodge up reducing bushes will adapt to the link pipes.
Then you have to hope that the fixed mounting bracket lines up with the hanger. It looks central to the top of the "silencer" so will need a tubular spacer and long bolt to mount it, even if the hole lines up.
They look awful and will sound awful. Save your money.

Just look out for a second hand set on eBay / Marketplace, any from a 600/750/900 monster should fit. As Mr Gaz says above, the cans are the easy part, the link pipes will be needed and they are model specific. You're better off buying a set complete.

I got some standard M620i cans off Ebay about 12 months ago in pretty good condition and cost me about £65 for the pair with postage -they more or less bolted straight on and have been fine.

They look awful in my honest opinion - from memory someone like lextek make link pipes for Monsters so you can then use your own choice of silencer. All the low end cans are made from the same generic parts from China / Taiwan etc so take your pick!

First you'd need to kick the pipe angle up a bit as to look half reasonable the tail of the pipe needs to be vertical, that means adapters and they're probably not going to be off the shelf items.
Then you'd need to fix the things to something. The standard mount might be able to be used but is going to need a fitting in a different place on the pipe. So you'd want to take off the original mount and have a new one made and welded on. That's going to make the pipes look messy so there's a bit of work cleaning up the surfaces.

You'll also need some fake BS AU stickers to at least pretend they are for road use.

So you could but it's more a question of is it worth the effort and how good a set of ear plugs you have unless you modify some mutes to fit the pipe.

I love in the advert "Inlet diameter of 51mm, can be infinitely reduced to 38mm with adapter (included) ", that's not very infinite
