Member Contributer Yokel Posted January 22, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted January 22, 2017 Those of you with more experience, how on earth do you get your helmet in the side case? I've read they fit in the left one... XL Shoei? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiutis Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Not sure if XL would fit!? I have a M Shoei and have to wiggle it and it barely fits. It's a pain and something Ivse just accepted but I do miss 6th gen bags because of that. Icarry a bike lock and normally just lock it to the bike which is quicker than trying to fit in a side case.

Member Contributer swimmer Posted January 23, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted January 23, 2017 My small Arai RX-Q barely fit. My small Arai Defiant does not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer paulmeisterpk Posted January 23, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted January 23, 2017 A Medium Scorpion EXO-1000 wouldn't fit. My XXL definitely won't fit. I was more than a little disappointed with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer EhViffer Posted January 23, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted January 23, 2017 My Medium Schuberth C3 Pro fits but my wife's Large Shoei NeoTech does not. Having said that we both just lock the helmets to the bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Yokel Posted January 24, 2017 Author Member Contributer Share Posted January 24, 2017 Good to know I'm not alone on this... There were a few minutes there that I was in serious self-doubt on my packing ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Rider14 Posted February 23, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted February 23, 2017 That's why I have a big ass Givi topcase on mine... I only use the factory side cases when touring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridered Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I added the Honda 45L topbox, and it fits 2 full face helmets. My small Shoei does not fit in the side cases. Most of the time I hang my helmet from the mirror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohlias Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 My wife's small Shoei RF-900 fits sideways in the larger left side pannier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotshoe1200 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I have a medium HJC and it won't fit in either side. I will also hang mine on the mirror, but it's a Captain America and has a Sena R10 on it, so I don't leave it unattended for long. Any ideas of how to lock it on?

Member Contributer swimmer Posted October 17, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted October 17, 2017 If you look at this page (and maybe some others in the same thread) posted on the mother ship you can find some more info that I an others posted about fitting a helmet into these side cases. http://advrider.com/index.php?threads/vfr-thread-how-many-of-us-have-em.430445/page-225#post-32912150 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotshoe1200 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Well, what do you know? I just went out and tried it. Had to get it in just right and give an extra push to the door to get the latch to catch, but it worked! I really should hang out here more often.
