If you are talking wire mesh type, the closest you can get off the shelf is one for an Africa Twin  :icon_scratch: which will be a problem in the US and you'd still need to modify it.

If you can be satirised with the acrylic Velcro/stick on type, then the round Street triple ones fit perfectly, they are cheap and you should be able to get those in the US.

I have homemade protectors.  I took a flexible aluminum screen mesh that would hold its shape, cut it into two oversized circles and used velcro to hold it.  This is a lens protector. 

Here is a partial shot with a prototype front fender.

I thought that Americans did not do satire?
