I was just wondering what your thoughts on ALT adjustable side stands are. I'm planning to install them on my 2020 Africa because it started to lean on one side. Has anyone had experience with them? Any advice would be appreciated.
 
Absolutely, the ALT adjustable side stands are fantastic. They allow you to adjust the height, which can be really helpful if your Africa Twin is leaning more than you'd like, especially after making changes to the suspension or when you've added extra weight

I put one on my friend's 2020 Africa Twin after he added some luggage, and it started leaning a bit too much. It was a simple fix, and it's way more stable now. Definitely worth considering if your bike's lean angle isn't right
 
ALT adjustable side stands are really good, they're sturdy and give you flexibility to get the lean right, even on uneven ground, they will fit well for a 2020 and feel way more stable than stock stands, check the fitment and make sure you get the right length for your setup, easy peasy
 
Honestly, adjustable side stands are often a crutch for bad suspension setup. If your bike's leaning too far, fix the sag or preload first, hardware won't solve a geometry problem.
