Good day, Guys.

I've read a number of posts where riders have changed the "D" rings on their helmets to a quick release style fastener.
I'm just a little perplexed as I can't seemed to locate a "Quick Release" for helmets.
To those of you that have changed to this type of release; "Would you please send me either the product number or manufacture's web link?"
On a final note, I took the advice of many, and installed a "push button" fuel cover release.
Wow; what a great investment! Thanks for the recommendation!

Ride In Peace

 

I bought one about 15 years ago, and have used it on three different helmets....I love it! I got mine at a HONDA/HARLEY Dealership and don't have the mfg. name. Look on e-bay they have them.

 

Go to J&P website and do a search for these words Fast Hook for Helmets or Echo Quick Release Buckle (this one is metal) and you will get what you need.(Didn't put up link as I am not sure if it is against the rules here.)

 

Bought ours out of J&P catolog. Big Book 2010, page 92, upper left corner. Fast hook for helmets, item #132-660. $5.99. Works fine and we are satisfied. Advertised as DOT approved. Their phone number is as follows. 800-397-4844. You should be able to order one with this info and you will start to recieve the catalog if you don't already.

 

Been using them for years....Just ALWAYS make sure its locked in..They can be a little tricky for newby's since you/they cant see what you/they are doing.Give it a good tug!!!. Enjoy.. :-) o~`o

 

I really like the "Quick Release" snaps.
Check them out

 

This is the one I use. It's a metal-to-metal connection. Easy to install and very secure. Better price than JP catalog and free shipping:

That's the one I got.

 

I had one on my last helmet, but ended up not putting on my new helmet when I replaced the old one.

Seemed like the quick release was more trouble than it was worth. A couple of times I thought I had it latched, but it really wasn't (would have been bad news in an accident), and it seems like it always was working itself loose and I had to tighten the straps.

 

I just went to E-bay did a search "quick release helmet" found several auctions and about 4 different styes. All for about $9 or $10 shipped. I use this one by Fasthook,

I've tried the one by Echo like the ones others have shown you, I just prefer this type. Easier to use with gloves on. Just a personal preferance. Cost about the same, do the same job, to each his own.
