BMW R 1200 R [2006-2010] - Tanking Basic including counterpart tank bag

Product description: Tanking Basic for BMW R 1200 R

The Hepco & Becker tanking basic is specially designed for the motorcycle model BMW R 1200 R of the construction years 2006 to 2010. This accessory enables a safe and easy attachment of a tank bag on the motorcycle.

The scope of delivery includes the tanking and an adaptable counterholder, which can be installed on the tank bag depending on the tank shape and handlebar. Even if the tanking is attached, access to the fuel cap remains without restrictions.

The installation of the tanking is uncomplicated, since only the tanking and a compatible tank bag are required for the model mentioned.

Technical features and operation

• The tanking ensures a firm hold even at high speeds.
• The lock is mechanically and can be seen by a clear click noise.
• The tank bag is unlocked via a tensile mechanism on the front of the backpack, in the direction of travel.
• In Germany, no general operating license (ABE) or an entry in the vehicle documents is necessary for the use of the tank bag system.
• The recommended maximum speed with assembled tank bag is 130 km/h.
• The maximum payload should not exceed about 3 kg.

Additional Information

The basic tanking has a purely mechanical locking, in contrast to the lock-IT fueling, which also uses magnets for centering. Both systems use the same model -specific metal ring, but differ in the screw -on elements on the ring.

It is important to note that a tank bag and its counter holder have to come from the same system in order to be compatible.
