Morning All,
Trying to see if a Uly will fit in the back of a van, to try and keep from hauling a trailer for a new bike pickup. What would the height be minus the mirrors, how short can you make one ?

Thank you,
Steve

Mine (2010) is right about 52" at the brake master cylinder, on sidestand and tires full. you would probably drop it down a bit if you had it level and let some air out.

You can always bring it down several inches by strapping the suspension down with a couple of ratchet straps.

On my Ford 1 ton, it only has around 48 inches of room.
