Regarding locks, I think Kuryakan has a lock set up that can work off the grips. Haven't seen it in action though.

 

I take the slack out of the chin strap and hang it on the handlebar grip, I usually carry it if I am worried about someone stealing it.

 

there is no such thing as secure.

 

Well I always leaave mine dangling on the bike and have no prob, theres still that chance tho.

 

messin with a harley man's helmut is like messin with a man's car ,it's just not supposed to happen , i leave mine dangling on my bars , if they see me get off my scoot and still have the ***** to take it then more power to em, but if i ever were to catch any one messin with it they would get the beat down of thier lives..lol!!!
ride safe!!!

 

I don't see any problem with carrying the helmet into wherever you are going. Jeeze, you are likely wearing all the other biker gear... Hey, the helmet is a great seat saver in a restaurant.

 

I can only think of one time I carried my helmet into a restaurant with me and that was in Dubuque on the edge of shady side.

 

I have a lidsafe helmet bag which is waterproof and has a steel cable and exomesh liner which will stop people who dont really want to nick the helmet

 

If it happens to be coolish enough outside, I'll wear a helmet. If I'm doing lots of quick errands (gas, smokes, bank, etc.) I'll just leave the damn thing on. If I'm going to be a while, or go to a place where it's innappropriate to wear a helmet, I'll cable lock the d ring to the sissy bar. I mean, jeez, if they want the helmet that bad to cut the damn cable lock and stupid enough not to figure out what a detachable backrest is, then they can have the damn helmet. Even without a helmet, they can have my sissy bar, back pad and luggage rack in their "getaway car" in 10 seconds! The cable lock just prevents the easily dissuaded opportunists. Besides, it's one of the few uses I have found for a gun lock! It's a gray, modular HJC in XS, so good luck to any thief who wants to turn it into coin!
