If you use a Full Face Helmet, Where do you put it when you leave the bike?
I just bought a Schuberth C3 Pro. I used to put my HJC 3/4 on the mirror but this is worth a lot more money and I don't want to MESS it up. I also want to lock it.
My Arai typically gets locked in my topcase. If I happen to have my backpack in my topcase, I'll hang my helmet from my engine guards with one of those combination-lock carabiners. If I'm just going into a restaurant (where I happen to be now), then I just take my helmet in with me and set it on the seat beside me (which is where it is right now).
I leave it on the seat with a security cable through the chinpiece and a padlock. I arrange it so that if someone bumps it, the cable prevents it from falling to the ground.
I don't have anywhere to carry a locking device 95% of the time so I have a small lock stored on the clutch cable between a zip tie and the Power Vision plug.
I lock the helmet "D" ring to the mirror stem. I don't always take my best helmet with communication out.
Knock on wood, I've never had a helmet stolen. If I'm going into a place where I can't see the bike, I'll just use the helmet lock that was recommended few posts above. Works great.
I pretty much cross my fingers and hope for the best!! It does get a little nerve-racking when I leave my heated gauntlet gloves with sunglasses stuffed into my helmet hanging from my bars.
