...Givi 8203 Hand Guard Extenders. I'm quite pleased with them. Got mine from Motostorm in Italy.

They add to the stock units and give quite a bit more coverage, for weather only IMO but that's what I use them for. If you look at the link in the post above yours it shows a good picture.

Just bought a set.  So what’s the deal, they just snap onto the stock guards?

Any notable changes in turbulence or noise with the Givi hand guard extenders?

Agree that they offer much better protection for you hands. Makes a noticeable different in rain and cold.

I have hand guard extenders on several bikes and they work okay. When the mercury drops Hippo Hand Alcans for the win. Big, ugly and bulky but when is 20 degrees out and you on you 9th hour of the days travel and your hands are toasty warm you see the beauty in them.
