it has straps that was made for the aero bars but if you tighten it enough it will form around the round barLooks sweet man I just installed mine on my 3 day old SI. Does your Yakima fairing have the straps or the clamps? I feel like the straps don’t fit the round crossbars that well. Either way your setup looks very clean!
Did you use their measurements for the front towers?Will post a better pic when I get a chance
Guy on here built a hitch for the center exhaust, I think I'm gonna build one for mine too.Hello guys! Just got my hatchback sport 2 weeks ago and im new to the forum. Did my research on the internet and it seems that sport hatch and touring is out of luck when it comes to installing reciever hitch to hook my bike rack. Im planning to buy roof rack instead. How noisy is it when you transport 2 bikes on Roofrack? How much mpg you guys lost when you have roofrack installed? Thanks
Yes I used the exact measurement per Yakima 36” but the front bar placement still looks weird to me but I’ll know for sure when I attach my cargo on it. Your bar placement looks better to me imoDid you use their measurements for the front towers?
I had to adjust my a little to get it to seat correctly on the trim. I think i end up using the hatchback measurement 37" instead of the 36.5"
Sup man on all my cars that I have roof racks on I don’t really have noise issues as I always have a fairing with the racks. I wouldn’t be able to tell how it would be with bikes since I don’t ride but with snowboards and a cargo I don’t have any issues with the noise. If you really wanna make sure you to minimize noise you could use the aerodynamic bars.Hello guys! Just got my hatchback sport 2 weeks ago and im new to the forum.

36"? it calls for 36.5". It sat flush on your black trim on the roof ?Yes I used the exact measurement per Yakima 36” but the front bar placement still looks weird to me but I’ll know for sure when I attach my cargo on it. Your bar placement looks better to me imo
My bad it is 36.5” - 6”- 35 7/8” - 32” just remeasured everything in the 95 degree heat. From the pics my front seemed more pushed back than yours but I guess not since it’s exactly 6”.36"? it calls for 36.5". It sat flush on your black trim on the roof ?
As for the front bar placement, it's suppose to be 6" from the window trim
What pads did you use on your front. They look smaller than the one i have
My city mpg has been the same. I haven't been on a long trip on the hwy yet
weird...My bad it is 36.5” - 6”- 35 7/8” - 32” just remeasured everything in the 95 degree heat. From the pics my front seemed more pushed back than yours but I guess not since it’s exactly 6”.
My rear clip is not completely flush I will try adjusting it to 37 to see if that works. My front pad is 182 (B93-5)
