Product Information

Full details

The Kappa BF01K Flange is designed for motorcycle riders who want a secure, hassle-free way to attach a Tanklock luggage system to their bike. By replacing the traditional strap-based mounting method with a rigid, locking flange that attaches directly to the fuel cap, it provides a stable platform for your gear; however, users must ensure they verify specific model compatibility before purchase, as the flange is precision-engineered for particular fuel cap configurations.

FAQs

Does this come with the tank bag?

No, the BF01K is the mounting flange only. The Tanklock-compatible bag must be purchased separately.

Will this scratch my tank?

No. Because the bag locks onto the flange rather than resting directly on the paint or using straps, it significantly reduces the risk of paint damage.

Can I leave the flange on permanently?

Yes, the flange is designed to remain permanently attached to the fuel cap area.

Is it compatible with all motorcycles?

No, it is model-specific. You must verify that the BF01K matches your specific motorcycle's fuel cap configuration.

What if my fuel cap is offset?

The BF01K is engineered for specific layouts. If your bike requires an offset flange, ensure you have selected the correct MPN for your specific motorcycle model.

Troubleshooting

Bag will not click into place

Check that the Tanklock mechanism on the bag is clean and that the flange is not obstructed by debris or improper alignment.

Mechanism feels stiff when releasing

Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the locking lever and check for any small rocks or grit trapped in the rail system.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Eliminates the need for awkward straps that can scratch motorcycle paint
  • Extremely fast on-off operation for refueling and stops
  • Highly stable even at highway speeds
  • Matches the aesthetics of the bike with a clean, low-profile look

Cons

  • Requires specific model compatibility verification
  • Cannot be used without a compatible Kappa Tanklock-ready bag
  • Installation requires tools and careful handling of fuel cap screws

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the BF01K, first identify the correct fuel cap screws. You will typically need to remove the existing screws around your fuel cap, place the flange over the opening, and secure it using the bolts provided with the kit. Ensure the screws are tightened evenly to prevent fuel leakage or misalignment. Compatibility is specific to the motorcycle make and model; always check the fitment list before installation. Maintenance is minimal: periodically check that the screws remain tight and ensure the locking mechanism is free of debris to maintain a smooth, secure connection.
