Fork conversion

I am in the proces of fitting 916 forks to my 888. I have all the bits apart from the top yoke.
The ideal option would be the CycleCat conversion kit, but that costs £200 plus.
The question is, do later 900SS use 53 mm forks and is the offset the same? Alternatively do later Monsters use 53 mm forks and do they have the same offset?
When converting Monsters to superbike forks a lot of people have the original top yoke bored out to match, I do not think this is possible with the 888 yokes as they have less metal to play with.
All suggestions gratefully received
