Anyone make rear sets for 08 695 Monster?

If you know if they do exist, can you give me an idea whether or not the riding position is more or less comfortable than stock? I've never ridden a bike so equiped so of course I am curious. The stock handlebars remind me of the old "clubman's" bars--would they need to be changed to clip ons or something similar? Thanks in advance for your help!

I have an older Monster. I recently added rearsets from Cycle Cat ( along with switching to GP-pattern shifting), and am very happy with the change. I did not change my bars.

Your 696 has a sportier riding position to start with, so I would guess you would not need the bars changed. I do not know for sure if anyone makes rearsets for your bike, but I'd bet someone does. The new Monster design is a few years old now, so I'm sure the aftermarket ahs responded. Call Cycle Cat and ask them; I am very pleased with the quality and workmanship of mine.
