Re: XL700VA & Givi B36N Sidecases
Looks like a perfect system for ur needs, givin that ur concerned with width, I wasnt so got 41ltr E41 Keyless sides and a E360 40ltr top.
I also looked at internal Givi bags, obviously they didnt fit as my cases are larger capacity internals but I did find that buying separate waterproof bag was a hell of a lot better value and it fitted better especially the compression sack versions.
Exped do a great model that is both waterproof and compression based - buy the one that fits your case closest, fill it with clothing etc, close the top to seal it, sit on it to compress it and release the air and voila, youve still got more space in your case for the things you may need to get your hands on during the day.

You can even get one that works with a self inflating sleeping mat so it can act as a pump, the air release valve just attaches to the matt and you sit on the empty bag to push the air form the bag to the matt, excellent kit!
Other brands available but for example, my Exped DryWide bag, XL 42ltr, fits perfectly in a E41 and cost £13.50 each from Facewest.co.uk. Same model would fit yours with a bit to spare or the valve model, called the Shrink Dry Bag 42L is £20.
Excellent piece of kit to finish off your cases.
