Boring top yoke to 53mm and shimming the bottom to the same size is a common mod when installing upgrade/superbike forks.

I did exactly this; M900 has 50/54 and I'm using 916 forks which are 53/53. I had the top bored to 53mm (plenty of material to do this BTW) and had top-hat shims machined to fit the bottom.
As an aside I have Ohlins forks (from 1198) in my 916 and these are 53mm top/56mm bottom and I would say that Monster yokes could be bored to this with no issues...
