Just got Beowulf's on mine. Two thirds the price and in my opinion look nicer. Besides made of stainless and tougher than ally.
Not on their website but occasionally they come up on EBay.

I've got the BEOWULF's on my bike and they are great. They are well made and they fix to the bike using the existing rad bolt points. I looked into mikes covers but didn't like the way they fixed to the rad ( using ties)

I've used my bike in 36 - 40 deg heat in the last few weeks and i have had no over heating issues.
