I have never heard of anyone messing with a Harley here in the republic of calif. I guess things are different in the States.

I hardly take mine off anymore since the lawmakers tell me how great they are. I get funny looks in Chili's, but I tell you what. Them caution wet floor signs do not deter me any longer. I'll run right past them. Sleeping I no longer need a pillow, just the plush neck padding. Brushing my teeth sucks, there is always some residue that gets smeared on the shield, and wiping by butt is difficult. Swamp *** every day gives ya a ash you wouldn't believe. Seriously, Illinois sucks but no helmet laws. It hangs in a bag in the garage. Sucks to need one every day.

LOL, nice!!

I used to hang it on the forward control brake-side, but now that I changed out to nicer looking controls & pegs, I don't wanna cover them up, lol. Now I hang my skid-lid off the right rear passenger peg. Fits there perfect, even folded up!

Use a cable bicycle lock works well to keep my brain bucket out of the local pawn shop. Almost makes you want to come back and stake out with all kinds of goodies on your bike to catch the bastages.

I like the pistol lock idea. I never thought of that.
I leave my fullface on the bike unlocked all the time and so far I have been lucky.
Stange thing is that at any bike event or rally or biker bar I don't even think about my lid getting stolen. The only time I take the helmet with me is somewhere like what you said a applebess parking lot I would take my helmet.

If I buy the new helmet I was looking at the other day I would probably not leave it on the bike. It was a fullface akuma true carbon fiber with a real transition face shield. wieghing in at 3lbs. for a large and 2.5 lbs for a med.
