Max, My TTR has the Yamaha stamped ones, but they are Acerbis. There is a small wind deflector you can purchase for them. It is small but very very effective. It was long ago and I'm bu99ered if I can remember where I got them, but maybe worth a try on Ebay, there is a seller who sells Acerbis guards by the pagefull, you could ask the question there ?

Be carefull about going to large, I had the Honda OE ones on my Varadero and they were rubbish (the wind whipped around the edges). The much smaller Acerbis ones on the TTR are way more use. Size isn't everything!

You could try cutting up some milk bottles (the plastic, not the glass ones!) and having a play with something for the winter ?

One of the best 'deflectors' I had was actually some Scaf-sheet (the plastic sheet they put on scaffolding) cut to fit over the top of my glove. I used some elastic to hold it to my wrist and index finger. Looked crap but boy it kept the rain, wind and cold away. Funny thing was, last year at Dent Johnno turned up with a very similar setup !!!
