1199 (1199 And 899) Kriega Tank Adapter

  1. Hi, planning to get down to Cornwall at half-term for a few days. Previously I've used a Kriega US-10 on the tail but it's not the most secure (needs the straps permanently fixing under the rear seat, which it don't really want to do).

    Instead I've bought a Kriega Tank Adapter. Has anyone fitted one to their Panigale ? There's no obvious place to anchor the front straps....

  2. There was a mention on here late last year of a Panigale specific system being designed by Kriega for the rear of the bike. Not heard anymore since though.
     
  3. So I had a fiddle in the garage this morning . Jeez it's cold.

    Thanks to Matt B who suggested looping front straps around the headstock and keeping them flat. I actually tied 2 small loops around the Rad mounting bracket then looped the straps thru them.

    I experimented with the Velcro patches on the rear but instead looped the optional spare straps through the seat mounting point;

    Final result is secure although I'm not happy that the nylon straps "hug" the tank paintwork;

    So I'll think about it a while but may revert to carrying in the tail and bolting straps through for security.

    For the record - hate riding with a rucksack !
