I did consider fitting handguards but with 758's and a Puig screen I figured there'd be major clearance issues, so gave up on the idea.

I use Barkbuster Storms throughout the winter. Work a treat but does affect the turning circle.  Only an issue at slow speed manoeuvring and shunting. I find folding in the mirrors when shunting takes away most of the restriction.

I second that. I've got Barkbuster Storms on my gen2 . No problems with them hitting the screen and they keep your hands toasty & dry.
