Oil radiator guard

Does anyone know of a good oil cooler guard or protector for the hyper. I'm running my bike without a front fender and don't want to beat the oil cooler up.

Any suggestions (other than putting the front fender back on)?

You can always just use some 1/4" hardware cloth from the hardware store (painted black, of course!).

[edit]

Okay, I found the company I was thinking of...

Yeah, I have one of those Cox guards. Seems to work OK. If you're not running the front fender, I'd be concerned about the fork tubes being damaged from normal road debris. This could pit your fork stanchions resulting in leaky fork seals.
