    I found your channel approximately 1 month ago and appreciate your honest reviews about the AT. I'm definitely looking forward to additional videos regarding mods and service costs to your bike. Thanks for sharing.

    I own a 2024 ATAS 6MT and can confirm the current upper wind deflectors offered by Honda do NOT fit. I ordered them and had to return them, they should fit the 2024 base model though according to my dealer.

    I ride my 2022 with the windscreen off. It is loud as can be but no turbulence. Just installed a huge givi tonight and it is quieter but turbulent. I can't win! I don't care about wind on my body but I definitely don't want to go deaf. Crazy loud even with ear plugs. If I can't figure this out, I am most likely gonna sell it and get a naked bike.

    Given its touring capacity, wonder what the cost and weight of an electronically adjustable windscreen would be, similar to what Honda offers on a Goldwing?

    You can save A LOT MONEY and have imeddiate fix by fitting wind deflector shield.

      Yep you are probably right (over the years I've used various wind deflectors with good, to great success)

    I also bought WRS screen. 2 best things I have done for the air comfort is OEM side deflectors and fork deflector (don't know which made bigger difference, because I mounted them at the same time, but it's much, much better)

      you have the fork deflector for a 2024 adventure sport? I'm trying to find one, but don't see one for the 2024 model. If you have the 2024 one for adventure sport, or know where I can order one, please provide the website. Thanks

      @@bmo2756 I ordered one for 2023 from aliepxress, and cut it to match 2024, also hadto make 2 new holes in it. It makes a lot of difference

    Finding a good windscreen can be a real bummer (been there/ done that). As "MtbPoland" commented below, getting a Wind Deflector can be the answer. Also, just saying I hear the lower-priced Transalp 750's stock/ factory windscreen is supposed to be pretty good (the reviewer "Nothing To Prove" was pretty impressed by it).

    I have the standard Africa Twin and my factory screen is 16.5” tall, but is a little more consistent in width that what yours appears to be at the 42 second mark. It seems to be 12” wide and the bottom and only increases to 13” at the top. I have a 3.75” Puig medium clip on top of it that has worked really well so far.
    Also, when I sat on the Adventure Sports with the 19” front wheel and then immediately climbed on the standard model with the 21” it seems you need less windshield on the standard because the dash instruments are higher in my sight line.
    As to your question, yes I do believe I will switch out my windshield at some point. I’m thinking I’ll check out Puig because they seem to be a little thicker and I’ve had good experience with them in the past. That’s said I’m open minded if something is better out there.
    Appreciate the thorough review of the WRS. The vibration in the larger one surprised me.

      yeah I was thinking the same with the base trim, with the info screen being a bit higher up

    The windshield conundrum.... Im in that same boat with my 21 AT. Good info, thanks for posting. I need to change out my stock unit. I tried the honda tall AT windscreen but top of windscreen is directly in my line of sight...very annoying

    @azmanmarleyarit Před 19 dny

    The only flaw is that gap when you raised the wind shield.
