Chain guard for 80s KHS Turbo 12 speed

Hi all,

Newbie here and I'm need of help for finding a chain guard that fits my 80s KHS Turbo. I have a similar bike as this guy I found online

https://grandmighty.com/hosted/finish...o-john-howard/

I use this road bike for commuting and it is light and fast. The problem is I always have to strap something on my pants for grease stains from the chain. I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get a chain guard that fits the bike? I asked a couple of local shops near my place and they said they don't know who makes them anymore for my vintage bike. Any ideas where I can get one? How do I get measurements to make sure it will fit my bike? Thanks!

Never seen a chain guard on a bike like that. Just use pant clips. There are plastic ones on ebay for about $2 a pair plus shipping. I like the metal ones better.

Kool Stop makes a chain disk. Personally, I wouldn't spend money on one, but if you want it:
