I've been using a cheap full-face (or whatever you call it) helmet and I carry it everywhere. I'm buying a very expensive helmet soon and I would love to know a secure way to keep the helmet when I'm out to the mall, fancy restaurants that are far away etc.

Do you guys carry it everywhere? Or is there a lock specially made to lock a helmet to your bike? Without it being stolen by a guy with a pair of scissors of course... that happened to me once

Depends on what bike you have, but I bought a bicycle lock and put that through my handlebars and my helmet, pretty secure.

Of course if your bike has clip-ons instead of handlebars, this won't work.

had 2 helmets stolen in 8 years and 1 went missing for about 3 days and suddenly reappeared no biggie for me as 2 were taken on new years eve and well i've had bigger incidents on the same night back home, enjoy.

This is the method that I use also, inexpensive and I've never had any trouble with it.

I keep splitting my bobbies helmet, maybe I'm too old and trying too hard, but then again no pain no gain hey...

No built in helmet lock on your bike?

I run a thick bicycle cable lock through mine too and store it on the bike so it can air out.

I know of straps being cut off so you need to run something through the actual eye opening.

I keep mine in my locker cabinet next to my AK47 ....

I use cable lock for my helmet. Stops thr opportunity thiefs. Real thiefs have bolt cutters anyways, so if you wanna stay totally safe it's better to take the helmet with you.

First of all, what kind of bike do you have MatteoBassini?

carry with me all the time.

every where..

I keep mine in my topbox, can also keep it under my seat.

First of all, what kind of bike do you have MatteoBassini?

CBR250

There are special locks for helmets called... helmet locks

Lots of different ones and some bikes have special mounting points for those. Just google "helmet lock cbr250r" and I'm sure you'll find something.

I have a $350aud helmet that i usually just leave resting on the bike, hasnt been stolen yet

CBR250

Okay, then I would recommend a Givi box or something similar

yet

I believe the CBR250 has a small locked seat storage?...

You can open the seat storage and then lay the long part of the chin strap across the opening with the helmet dangling down close to the side of the bike... Then while holding the strap close the lid...

The strap is wedged under the seat and can't be removed without reopening the lid...

Where do you park it?

I keep mine in my Shad Topbox.

For the expensive helmet, I carry it in the cloth bag provided and check it in the store. The cheap helmet leave it on the seat... One time, when buying a new helmet, I put the old on the scooter next to my HOG.. and left.. paying it forward... x style..

yes but you need to take the bike out of the garage.

You could just have some Index stickers made up and cover the expensive brand logos.

Some sources say stickers are bad for helmets.

If you have a helmet lock on the bike use a hacksaw to cut slots in a metal tube that slides over the chin strap and part of the helmet to stop thieves cutting the strap.

Always carry mine with me. Now I just need to remember to take the keys out of the bike when I park it!

someone actually stole my shitty 200b index helmet off my bike!!!!!!

after that, i just said screw helmets and stopped wearing them... .its WAY too hot driving around town to wear a helmet for me anyway

90% of my driving is just cruising 1-2km within pattaya, so i just dont wear one

if i was going to start doing some highway driving or long rides out of town, id get a good quality fullface helmet..... and a simple helmet lock that can go through a section of the bike and through the visor opening.

I too have that problem. Went into the IT cafe for 2 hours once and didn't realise the keys were in the seat lock the whole time. No one stole it though, so good on Thais for that.

Oh that's okay. Thee's no need for a helmet if you're just cruising 1-2km with in a (Thai) town.

ARE YOU SERIOUS??????????

I had an accident when I was almost stationary ( guy ran into me ) and I was knocked unconcious. However, judging by the scrape marks on my helmet it saved me from a severe head injury after I was thrown onto the road.

I had my last accident 50 meters from my condo.

I wish you good luck, sir.
