Product Information

Full details

The GIVI BF17 is an essential mounting solution for motorcycle riders who utilize GIVI Tanklock or TanklockED tank bags and want a secure, tool-free way to attach and remove their luggage. Designed specifically for compatibility with select motorcycle models, this flange provides a stable base that eliminates the need for straps or magnets that could damage your bike's finish. While it offers unmatched convenience, users should note that it is designed for motorcycles in stock condition, and compatibility with aftermarket accessories like tank pads or modified fuel caps is not guaranteed.

FAQs

Does the BF17 come with a tank bag?

No, the BF17 is a mounting flange only. The tank bag must be purchased separately.

Will this scratch my paint?

No, the Tanklock system is specifically designed to keep the bag suspended slightly above the tank, preventing contact with the paintwork.

Can I use this with other brands of tank bags?

The BF17 is designed specifically for GIVI Tanklock and TanklockED series bags.

Is installation difficult?

Installation is generally straightforward for those comfortable with basic mechanical tasks, as it involves replacing the existing fuel cap screws.

What if I have an aftermarket fuel cap?

Compatibility with aftermarket parts is not guaranteed; it is recommended to return to a stock fuel cap configuration for proper fitment.

How do I know if this fits my bike?

Check the official GIVI compatibility charts for your motorcycle year and model, or consult your local authorized GIVI dealer.

Troubleshooting

The tank bag does not click into place securely

Check the locking mechanism for debris or obstructions, and ensure the flange is bolted down tightly to the fuel cap housing.

The flange does not align with fuel cap holes

Verify that your motorcycle model is explicitly listed as compatible with the BF17 and ensure no aftermarket fuel cap covers are preventing the flange from sitting flush.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Secure, wobble-free attachment for tank bags
  • Extremely quick installation and removal of luggage
  • Protects fuel tank paint from strap or magnetic wear
  • Clean, minimalist aesthetic that blends with the bike
  • Includes all hardware required for setup

Cons

  • Model-specific design limits use to compatible bikes only
  • Requires verification of fitment if the fuel cap has been modified
  • Tank bag must be purchased separately
  • Not compatible with all non-GIVI tank bags

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation involves removing the original fuel cap bolts and securing the BF17 flange in their place using the provided hardware. It is critical to consult the latest compatibility list for your specific motorcycle model, year, and trim to ensure the flange aligns with your existing fuel filler housing. During installation, use a torque wrench if specified in your motorcycle's service manual to avoid over-tightening the fuel ring bolts. For care, keep the locking mechanism free of grit and debris by occasionally wiping it with a clean cloth, ensuring the latch mechanism moves freely for a reliable "click" every time you lock your bag into position.
