Product Information
Full details
The GIVI BF46 Tanklock flange is an essential accessory for motorcyclists looking to securely mount TANKLOCK or TanklockED bags to their fuel tank cap area. Designed for riders who prioritize convenience and stability, it offers a tool-free attachment and removal system that prevents the bag from scratching the bike's paintwork. A notable caveat is that the BF46 is bike-specific, meaning it must be verified against your motorcycle's fuel cap configuration before purchase to ensure proper fitment.

FAQs
Does the GIVI BF46 work with all tank bags?
No, it is exclusively compatible with GIVI TANKLOCK and TanklockED series bags.
Will this scratch my motorcycle fuel tank?
No, the primary advantage of the Tanklock system is that it holds the bag slightly above the tank, preventing contact with the paint.
Can I leave the bag on the bike while refueling?
Yes, but you will need to release the bag from the flange to lift the tank cap, which takes only a few seconds.
Are specific tools required for installation?
You typically need a standard set of hex keys (Allen wrenches) matching the bolts on your fuel cap.
Is the BF46 compatible with my bike model?
The BF46 is bike-specific. Please check the GIVI fitment chart on their official website using your motorcycle's make, model, and year.
Troubleshooting
Bag does not click into place
Ensure the flange is free of dirt or debris and check that the release mechanism on the tank bag is not jammed.
Flange feels loose after installation
Verify that all original fuel cap bolts were fully tightened to the correct torque settings and ensure the adapter ring is flush against the tank surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the BF46 flange, ensure the motorcycle is on a flat surface and the ignition is off. Locate the fuel cap bolts and verify that the BF46 adapter aligns with your specific tank bolt pattern.
- Remove the original screws from the fuel cap ring.
- Place the GIVI adapter ring over the existing mounting points.
- Use the included fixing screws to secure the flange, ensuring you do not over-tighten, as fuel tank seals can be delicate.
For care, periodically wipe the flange with a damp cloth to remove grit or debris that may interfere with the locking mechanism. Regularly check that the mounting screws remain tight during your routine motorcycle maintenance schedule.
