Cant do it on our bike with flip open raised gas cap. Cant even put a magnetic one over it. No kit that i know of to change it either.

I can understand the givi mount system not working on the gas opening, but why no magnetic bags? Surely it's not a plastic tank? Excuse my ignorance, but I just purchased my bike last friday and haven't picked it up yet while the install crash bars, tail rack and 12v acc. charger.uscgmac_imp said:

It's a steel tank and I run a magnetic tank bag with no problems. I think the only problem would be that our gas cap sticks up so much that it can't fit smoothly over top (mine sits underneath the cap and straddles it with the top anchors)

You can use a tank bag but it has to go close to the seat. It doesn't sit right if you try putting it over the gas cap which is raised fairly high. Plus the way the tank is shaped.

On Givi's website, when you select the CB1100, they display the following image:
That would suggest that they indeed have a tankbag with a tanklock fitting (since there appear to be no magnetic flaps). However they only list the rear rack and a smart bar as products available for the bike. (Note that the picture also has a screen, but it is also not listed - perhaps they were discontinued?)

If you look at that pic closely the tank bag is held on with mounting straps, not by the locking system and it is raised where the gas cap is. Yes you can stick whatever you want on your bike and it may work but its not very good looking imo.
That givi tank bag may have a magnetic lock mount which sticks to tank by magnet on the lower portion of the bag then crosses over the cap and has a strap at top of tank so you can release and lift to fill up. At least thats what i can see from the pic but it doesnt lock to a ring around the gas cap like other applications.

Hi all, sharing my experience with Givi tanklock systems for CB's 2017 models
BF25, originally designed to work on Honda AT fit almost perfectly - "horseshoe" have different orientation on HAT ( 90 degree CCW ) so if you want to install it , 3 small plastic triangle pitch need to be removed from tanklock module, simply task with sharp knife.
Interesting is that tanklock added to the set BF25 is higher than standard tanklock delivered with tankbag - so you have a choice, I give a try with lower one. Bolts and bushes in set fit perfectly.
not bad look even on red tank, right ?
Model of tankbag i choose is XS307, before it will fit, the tanklock base have to be shift fully forward - another easy task with philips , what more is "fully legal"
as system is designed that way.
So...finally on the bike
as you may find out, tankbag fits perfectly and "hoovering" above the tank - low/standard tanklock ring do the job for me
But..check this out, BF20 may do the job as well

The smallest adapter will fit. I'm using XS307 15L.easy_imp said:
2 little stuff you need to mod:
1. the accessories (spacers and 4mm botls) wont fit the cap, need to get different spacers and 3.5cm x 4mm bolts
2. The base of the bag is adjustable, need to move all the way back so you can make full turn left and not hitting the bag on the side (horn button)
magnetic bag is not working with 2017 as the tank is full aluminium.Ban_imp said:

Did you experience the horn button touching the side of Givi back at left full lock?

I would never put anything on that beautiful tank. I have sidecases and a top box for storage. If I needed more I'd put a bag on the pillion or wear a back pack before obscuring the beauty of the CB. I understand people like tank bags for their most valuable stuff and things they need at the ready, and I could possibly do it on another bike, just not this one.

I have to agree. It's like a fat American walking around Paris with a fanny pack draped over his belly. Not a pleasant sight. But to each their own. Who am I to judge?
