tank bags

Post by padgman »

Anyone heard of cargoflex tank bags? MM list a tank cover for GP but no bag, and I cannot find any ref to this make on interweb! Look very similer to Moto guzzi branded bags but I'm not gonna spend 136 euro on a cover to find out for certain!

I have the tank cover and bag. The former is useful, although only covers the top part of the plastic tank panels. Its' main purpose is to provide three fixing points for the tank bag, which can be fitted and removed in seconds (unlike those for the Corsaro, Scrambler, etc.).

The downside is that the bag is only 15 litres in capacity - handy for papers, wallet, etc., or a couple of oddments and a set of (smallish) waterproofs. It's a good job that you bought all the luggage with the bike, as you don't get far with what you can get in this bag! I'm guessing that it's a set made by a proprietary manufacturer, same as the Hepco and Becker panniers and top box?

Good luck with the search - let us know how you get on,

Sw motech bag connection now do a range of bags that fit the granpasso fuel filler ring, I have used them on triumphs and they are very good. Check out eBay item 400315538651.

Cannot use rear set of straps due to front seat fixings but works fine with front and middle sets - job done!
