I put my 1/2 helmet on the front brake lever using the vee of the webbing. I have "locked" it on ocasion using a 3/4" ID plastic fender washer and a small, cheap combo lock over the brake lever. - might keep a kid from sliding it off. Like others posted, anything on the bike is easily stolen by someone who realy wants it.

I purchased the HD lock for my sportster, I ended up putting it on the handlebar, works just fine there. I also didn't use the security screws (so I can move it or take it off if I want), what's the point..if someone wants the helmet they can cut the strap, they aren't going to unscrew the screws.
I find that I only bother to use it when I'm leaving the bike where it is out of sight for a prolonged period of time.....

That's what I thought but apparently some kids don't care and wear them anyway.

Nothing magical about a helmet strap, as it's only purpose is to hold the helmet on your head.
Plenty of places that will repair helmets; fix/replace damaged straps, or even modify/replace the interior padding for a more comfortable fit.
