has anyone sources a wire mesh headlight guard/protector, kind of scrambler style. i am also trying to source a Yellow Fog Style lens for the headlight, hopefully hella brand for both.

any help would be great, i have spent at least 4 hours searching with no results

1974 r90/6 no fairing, 8", light i think

What year/model bike, and/or diameter?

For what? Model and year. You could be talking about a faired bike for all we know.

I know some such things exist for GS's (at least the protectors), but I doubt if for anything else.

sorry obvious error on my part, a 1974 bmw r90/6, no fairing i believe its a 8" light

There is an aftermarket accessory for aircooled VWs, but I think the diameter is too small. Wouldn't be too hard to fabricate something similar: http://www.chircoestore.com/catalog/pro ... 3mug4ks3c5

I 'spose you've looked at all the strainers in your restaurant kitchen?

Edit, I thought this was Tims Thread! Oops, sorry Tim.

upon looking at more pictures i am leaning away from this option

The price, look and size of these might be just the ticket:

For the yellow lens you might consider applying a yellow UV tint/film to the inside of your stock lens.

I was thinking about that possibility, but I don't know of any films that would work on either concave or convex surfaces. You might be able to tint it with theatrical light bulb dip:

A friend of mine down the street has a set of those Moss stone guards. I plan to test fit one the next time I ride over.
