I was thinking of one of these units, just have to figure on what bolt to attach it to:

And then there are these different styles of locks:

Or this one a different take on the HD lock:

I have a water bottle holder on the left rear crash bar so I mounted it on the right rear crash bar on my Ultra Classic. Just make sure that the co-rider has room for her leg without it hitting and possibly damaging one of her important parts Also it would prevent Linda McCartney suing you for 48 million dollars if she should lose another leg.

I have a Road King Custom (no saddle bag rails), so I put mine on the grab rail behind the seat, just before the L plate.

That would be Heather Mills getting some of Paul's cash.....Linda has been dead for a good while now

Bolt it to one of the studs in the garage wall!
I agree!! My first thought when I saw the topic, Helmet lock, where to mount? On your Honda of course!

All kidding aside, crash bar unless you have a new bike, and they won't fit. I don't know when but they went from 1-1/4" to 1-1/2 inch on the front crash bars. Just know that my 08 crash bars are alot fatter than my 01 was...

It'd be nice if these models with barrel locks could be keyed to your bike.
