Howdy, Anyone know the hard bag inner dimensions for the Uly sidecases? I can measure 'em when I get home but need to order some stuff, want it to fit inside if possible. Regards, Jim in Santa Barbara |

Hello Kristi, Thanks! I thought "no way!" then I realized your measurements are in CM. 50 x 30 x 29 cm = 19.68" x 11.81" x 11.42" inches. I'm heading to Death Valley next weekend, wanted to get a tent that would fit in the hard luggage. 5 x 18 should be perfect. Best, Jim in Santa Barbara (Message edited by jim_sb on March 30, 2006) |

I deleted the post because I realized that it was cm and then probably the outer dimensions. Was waiting for Carlos to get home to have him measure the inside of the bags. We purchased a small 2-3 person tent from Target. It fits in the side bag with the pole running through the framework for the top bag and tail section. Tent was $30 or so and was one of the uni-pole set-ups. Sorry I didn't get back sooner. Between children, dinner and getting ready for March Badness in GA things have been crazy here. Kristi |

Hi Kristi, No worries, once you tossed that out there I figured out how to track it down on the 'net. And my cell phone converts metric to SAE. I wanted small & light gear anyway because I'll be doing some back country riding on my dirt bike as well, just was hoping to squeeze the gear into a Uly side case when possible. I think it'll be fine. Thanks, Jim |

Just a comment on the side bags. Last night I placed both of our helmets in one bag. Closed it and locked it. Nice. |

cavernous space in these side bags.. an option for more cargo space .. try dry bags purchased from outdoor outfitters and paddlesport shops... various sizes colours... |

Yep, great bags. I was able to get a 2 man tent, ground cloth, sleeping bag and pillow into the left side case and had room leftover! Couldn't fit the Therm-a-rest pad in; it was too long for any of the cases so I bungeed it to the beaver tail on the pillion pad. There is something comforting about knowing that all your luggage is securely locked to your bike. Only issue is I can't use the helmet lock when the left side case is attached. I'll need to get one of those "extenders". Best, Jim |
