I'm bringing up an old subject. Has anyone come up with a decent hand guard lately. Seems the only one commercially available is from ProjektD. SSD no longer makes them and the link from the motax version is dead.
I'm currently trying to see if I can get information from SSD on his. I don't really care for the acrylic/lexan version like ProjektD has.
I did see the version Pope has but the RAM mount parts a big gaudy and not very cheap.
Any help is appreciated, Kevin in the cold north.
Baker air wings? http://bakerbuiltairwings.com/
When I was using them they worked well. Kept the air off my hands when it was cold.
They seem to only sell side "wings", which appear to be meant for mid torso and legs? They are below the mirrors.

Baker does still make the hand wings. They just don't list them on thier website. The lady I spoke to did not know why they weren't up there but I was able to order a set ($79.99) yesterday. I prefer metal over acrylic but this saves me the work.
Thanks for the replies!

Hi CB, are you talking about the hand wings for the 1st generation? I'm haunting for those :)
KZZ, nice work.
How did you build the mounts?
Lots of cutting and fitting to make it work out right?
Yes there was a bit of cutting. I Used some stuff paper to make a template first. They do work well. I was going to remove for warmer weather but never have.
Ride safe, Ted
are these the ones with 1 or is it 2 attachment points? I ask because I never saw them (does somebody have a picture?) and because of Brian's comment.
In my broken bike I had the handguards from the French company, Motax, which are not available anymore, and they had the 2 attachment points, just like the Project D, I think. How about these Baker?

The original Baker hand wings for the C-14 only had one mounting point and that was on the black fairing top cover, so it was not even a frame hole but one of those rubber plug mounts. The later versions used a pair of those same screws instead. The one- screw (Boys!) models were satisfactory in my experience although I do know some people broke the fairing cover trying to tighten them just a tad too much. They had an extremely fine line of 'tight enough' not to move and 'opps, cracked the fairing cover'. I believe the second generation cured all of that by using two mounting points.
