Ideas for carrying helmet
I got a roadking custom and I was trying to figure out how to carry my daughter full face helmet and couldn't figure anything out with the exception of putting it in a duffle bag and strapping it between the rear seat and the tag but it rides on the paint of the fender. I don't have a backrest or rack. What is all needed to mount a rear trunk?

do you know if the seat from an electraglide will fit on the 07 Custom?

J&P has this and a couple different ones , or even a cargo net would work just have the helmet sit on the passenger seat and strap it down , pretty inexpensive too. http://www.jpcycles.com/product/134-236

Aside from strapping down to the seat or fender, there aren't going to be any real cheap options. A bungee net could possibly work, but I've never been a fan of the hooks being near paint and chrome, and don't trust thieves. I'd guess a trunk will be an easy $1k+ depending on whether you get color matched or leather. The leather one is $700 alone, and I'm not sure it locks. Spending that kind of coin I'd want something secure. You could try eBay or Craigslist for a "take off".
