Yep. Just Google "hand guard turn signal" and you'll see there are many out there. The clamp on types, like the Tusk D-Flex, could be fitted to a Harley readily enough. Not being marketed for Harley's, the prices are a lot more reasonable.

Default Another option for Hand protection

We ride in the cold a lot here in MN and I - like many riders - don't have a fairing. The windshield does not extend to coverage for my hands, and bulky gloves make it harder to shift. If you're all about utility, give the Desert Digits (for 'warm fingers') a look. http://www.leadermotorcycle.com/wind-deflectors/

Amen, I'm in s. Tx and not the same cold but my hands are super cold prone. And the grip warmers are awesome and i use them probably more than i need to, but it means i can use my summer gloves longer and keep the cold weather bulky gloves in the attic.

I'm ordering Superbike handlebar mitts from Amazon. They look like giant mittens so no goofy shields to mount or electrical doodads to hook up.
