I've looked over a few different sites for a helmet lock. I found one that is called the "bolt" lock. it looks like a very good product but at $60 I think its expensive. Does anyone have one that they use that isn't so expensive??? I also found this one: www.fullhousecycles.com/eshopprod_cat_7085-38076_prodtree_182-273-272_product_1071602.BIKERS_CHOICE_HELMET_LOCK.htm

Your good opinion's are needed before I go and spend the money and not work for me. Oh before I forget I'm not looking for how fancy but how well it does its job.

Run that under the hand grip for you passenger and padlock the helmet D-ring to the dog chain.

Those pix over on SD use the chin strap D ring.

You go to a ski shop and get a cable lock for skis. I have one I'm using now. Not the big ugly one for cars, it's about 1/16 thick and has a combination lock. I put it through my D-rings and put the rest under the seat and close it.

I use the cable lock that came with my Glock. (yes the Glock is in a safe) It work great with both the FF helmet and the "dome" I think the FF is more secure because it is run through the face part, but on the dome it goes through the D rings. Not massively secure, but better than nothing.
