Expert Reply:
The correct Yakima roof rack for your 2021 Hyundai Kona with a bare roof is made up of the following parts:
Naked Roof
- Yakima JetStream Crossbars - Silver # Y00428 or Black # Y00425
- BaseLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y33TR
- BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack Towers # Y06175
- BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack Towers # Y06131
For added protection, I recommend considering adding locks to the rack with the Same Key System Lock Cores # Y07204.
Once you have the roof rack on your Kona, you will simply need a roof-mounted kayak carrier, and for that I highly recommend the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier # Y04073.
This is a great system because it comes with tie-downs so you won't have to purchase any extra, has pads on the base and arms to help protect your kayak when you're traveling, and is easy to install by just clamping on your roof rack.
