Hi,

I have a 55 reg 2004 R200GS I am trying to fit a Tanklock adapter BF17 to the fuel cap but (and it should not be this hard) my fuel cap is below the bodywork. I have removed the cap to see if it is mounted correctly and it all looks ok. If I fit the Tanklock as is it will not sit right, damage the paintwork and not apply the correct pressure to the fuel cap. I have checked the Kappa / Givi website and I have the right adapter plate.

So is my fuel cap fitted correctly or am I missing something to raise it above the bodywork
Has anyone fitted this and has it gone ok on this bike
I have seen on a different forum someone has fabricated a plate to raise the Tanklock above the bodywork but this was on a ST

Don’t really want to send this back and start looking again

Cheers
 
The one I have is the correct one stated on the website but that photo is a generic image :( otherwise using those spacers would work, thank you for posting up though
