Only other F3 forks fit right -
F2 forks would also fit, but they are a step backwards in technology. F4 moved from 41mm to 45mm (I believe), so the would not fit.
People have done complete front end swaps to newer 600rr, which also have 41mm forks, but you need to swap everything down to the head tube.

A friend of mine has a wrecked 95 F3, I'll ask her tomorrow (well actually today) if the forks are still good and what she would want for one/both.

Bandaid - you might need to build axle spacers to get the spacing right. Also, the rotors from an F3 (296mm) are a different size than the 600rr (310mm). You might run into caliper-wheel clearance issues. Better to just find a 600rr front wheel.
CBRstuart - They wont fit into your triple tee F4 have 43mm forks, F3 have 41mm. But you could swap the whole front end (I see that auction comes with upper and lower tees). It looks like the caliper brackets are different from F3-f4 (see pic of f3 forks here).
