Hey all,
Been lurking here a while as I still don't have my M1/M2 yet due to winter (already signed up for the MSF course this spring), and am 99% sure I'll be getting a CBR250RA once it's time to pull the trigger.
With that said, I've always been a fanatic when it comes to keeping my cars detailed/clean/spotless, to the point that NOTHING touches the paintwork unless necessary. In looking at bikes, I was absolutely sold on a gas cap ring-mounted tank bag, like one of the following:
Bags-Connection Daypack II - webBikeWorld
Low and beyond however, when looking at a CBR250R in the flesh the other day, I noticed there are no visible screws around the gas cap at all.
Has anyone managed to get one of these to work on their bike? I've even went as far as to flip through the service manual on CBR250.org to see if that ring is replaceable (and maybe I could drill it, and replace it when I sell), but couldn't really find anything.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I should add with a bit more reading I see the CBR250R has a removable vs flip-up gas cap, hence why no bolts. Now I'm wondering if it is possible to drill the gas cap (making sure it is clean and there is no gas on it at all), or if anyone makes an aftermarket flip-up for the bike.
