adjustable forks - which ones fit M620?
as title, can I fit any Ducati ones, eg 998, 916, 900ss

my guess is yes as long as 65mm spacing for brakes and same front wheel spindle but not sure about yokes etc

thanks

You can fit any Ducati forks as long as they fit the standard (for your bike) yokes.

There is a little legal fiddle though.

Ducati uses two sizes of forks - 50mm diameter and 53mm diameter.

Yours will be 50mm diameter, as used on most Monsters, Supersports and the other "smaller" bikes.
The "large" bikes get the bigger forks - 916 line, 999 line, 848/1098/1198, etc.

So no, they won't fit!

900ss or st ones will do just check lenth as some are longer than others i have st ones and are about 65mm longer just means they poke throuth the top yoke a bit more could be good if you wanted to put clipons ubove top yoke ideal for a bad back
