Recommended Yakima Towers for For Round Bars on 2021 Honda Ridgeline With Factory Side Rails
Question:
It appears the yakima timberline towers would be a good fit for my 2021 Honda Ridgeline factory rails but wanted to know if you have any better recommendations? Also would like to use existing round Yakima bars, and saw there are adapters for the timberlines. Any other suggestions? Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
Yakima recommends using round bars that are at least 58 inches in length for the 2021 Honda Ridgeline, so if the round bars you already have are at least that length, there's no reason why you can't reuse them.
The Yakima # Y33TR TimberLine towers are exactly what I'd recommend you use. When the TimberLine towers are combined with the RoundBar SL adapter, part # Y03536, the round bars will work perfectly with the TimberLine towers.
Because the round bars cause quite a bit of wind turbulence compared to the aero-style bars, you might also consider a fairing like # Y05018 to quiet things down a bit.
