899 Tank Bag Scratches

Discussion in 'Panigale' started by Advikaz, Apr 24, 2016.

  1. Going away on my 899 in June and have Kriega luggage.. Bit concerned about the tank bag adapter and fitting it to my 899 with how soft the paint is..

    Any ideas ? Some have mentioned about using that soft mesh stuff but I'm not sure if it'll really help..

    Any thoughts ?!??? Or should I just put all the bags on the pillion seat and not bother with the tank..

  2. Most of my tank is venture shielded but I'd still use the mesh and probably some sort of "foam cushion"
     
  3. I'm thinking this but I've got a horrible feeling that it'll still leave swirl or rub marks on the tank :persevere:
     
  4. I'm thinking about putting some tape of some description on the tank, just whilst the Kriega harness is on

    Reckon it'd be okay??
     
  5. I've just returned from Le Mans MotoGP and had a tail pack on mine. I used detailing tape to protect the paint, no issues and it pulled of with no problems.
     
  6. Great shout thanks
