look at the metal strap attached to the bottom side of the passenger seat hook the second helmet through that strap using the helmet strap.

What about lidsafe?



PacSafe manufactures it:
http://www.pacsafe.com/www/index.php?_room=3&_acti on=detail&id=27

It may be available through one of BWB's sponsors, not sure.

There aren't many products like this out there... I got one, and feel better about leaving the helmet with the bike.

My bike just projects an aura a menace that people are uncomfortable walking near, much less even thinking about lifting something.

No, seriously, I haven't had an issue with anything like that even if I do leave the bike on the back peg and go in and watch a movie. But there isn't a great huge bike community here (full face crowd, there are plenty of Harleys) so there may not be the "demand" for "second hand" lids.

If you have a bad assed one off custom helmet, yeah. Lock it up. Lots of options on bar and cable locks.

Good luck!

Yeah, and if only it were black, it would be faster, in addition to more menacing...

hot weather
+ old habit of putting helmet on left passenger peg
+ 1125
= "fumey" stinky lid
learned the hard way, LoL
