I dont see much about fitting handguards. I see Barkbusters do a set that lock into the bar end weight screw.
I decided I wanted to fit my old Clear handguards and have fabricated a plate to use the screw below the right wingmirror, seems OK so far, though I think I need to consider strengthening the actual bolt mount part.

Anyone there with engineering in their blood want to offer a thought on the prototype? (Havent started on the Left side yet)

Barkbusters also has a pair that do not attach to the bar end weight, but clamp to the handlebar.
I only put them on in the winter, but they work well.
