Fits standard Africa Twin model ONLY, headlight guard for the Adventure Sports model available here.
The front end of the Africa Twin sports a lot of plastic work and very few easily accessible mounting points, creating a challenge when finding locations to mount a proper headlight guard. AltRider engineers found a creative but practical solution to mount the Headlight Guard bracket to the bike, fastening at the base of the windscreen and to the cowl support underneath the headlight assembly. The result is a sleek and sturdy bracket design that matches the bike’s aesthetics and still provides maximum protection to the vulnerable headlight.
A damaged headlight not only leaves you in the dark, it can mean over $1,200 in replacement costs from Honda. Protect your Honda Africa Twin’s headlight with the AltRider Mesh Headlight Guard and avoid a costly mishap and a ride home in the dark.

If you’re outfitting your Standard model with Upper Crash bars AND a Headlight Guard: it is optional to trim unused mounts (for cosmetic reasons). See our blog for additional details. NOTE: If you trim the unused brackets you’ll need to use touch up paint to prevent oxidation.
