Helmet locks

[JacobsBuell]

I'm not finding if you've guys already talked about this, but has anyone found something to attach their helmets to the bike. Maybe somekinda mod? I hate carrying my helmet with me and I hate just leaving it there hanging on my passenger peg while I run into the store real quick. Let me know, thanks guys, you all post really good stuff.

There is a small cable in your tool kit that has two loops on it. Putt that through your D ring on your helmet, then put the two open opens around the seat lock.

the 1125r comes with a little tab under the rear seat where the D ring of the helmet can fit without the cable thing... I wish my lightning had one of those!

Some guy on ebay sells these

I have the ones that Thaloc posted, they are "ok". The only reason I say just ok, is my scorpion 1000 would not work with these locks. However, my HJC and Suomy both work fine. If you get them, I'd paint them black to match the compartment, and make sure you place them in the correct position. I had to re-drill one side.

I use the Kuryakyn License Plate Helmet Lock.

There are other options as well...

See I actually like using the supplied cable. It allows me to set my helmet on the passenger seat. I used to hang it on the side, but a$$holes kept walking too close to my helmet and scratching the top of it! Now I set it on top and away from large lumbering *****.

thanx speedkills, I like the first one yo posted. The helmet cable is what I had to use when I wore my old scorpion 1000. Just looked funny with one high and one low.

Jacobs, personally the one speedkills linked us looks like it would be interesting. However, the one I use is pretty cheap. And it works just fine.

 

[JacobsBuell]

Hey thanks Josh, speedkills and everyone else. I knew about the cable but was skeptical about that tiny thing. Hearing that quite a few people actually use it and like it is a relief.

I use one of these threw my triple tree and my chin bar on my helmet. My helmet just sits on my air box and I dont have to take my seat off.

I've seen people just use simple bike locks as well. You don't have to spend much $ that way.

 

[ichibird]

Simple, $5 for two master locks.

 

[dave_xb12r]

Gator, I'm taking your idea. Normally I lock my helmet with the supplied cable and set it on the seat. After too many people scratched my helmet with it locked on the side, I decided to wise up and lock it on top of the bike.

I took the idea from ebay and made my own that resembles it. Ill try to get pics up. But as far as those from krokin(sp) harlet actually sells one like that tha ]t I used to have. I just simply mounted it on the passanger peg bracket, and it worked great till the locking pin fell off BUT not while I was riding lol.

DIY Helmet Lock

 

[JacobsBuell]

Hey i like that where it goes on the swingarm, but I'm not sure if i wanna get rid of the belt guard. I wonder if there's any way to mod that guard so i can install that lock too. Maybe a little cutting and some longer screws. Thanks Steven

 

[Stevenc150]

Glad to help. [up]

Anyone know a place that I can get the helmet locks shown above that mount under the passenger seat? I see someone was selling them on Ebay at one time but I haven't been able to find them. If they can't be purchased anymore is anyone have the ability to make some?

I use one of these threw my triple tree and my chin bar on my helmet. My helmet just sits on my air box and I dont have to take my seat off.

omg i bet i have 5 or more of those pistol locks and with my sx i even have a cross bar.
Thanks Gator
