Title: Need Helmet Lock To Match
Post by Bender on 10/27/19 at 08:42:22

My 2009 came without a helmet lock, and Im tired of carrying my helmet with me or leaving it on the ground under my bike. How can I get a helmet lock that matches my ignition and tool box lock, without replacing all three? When I look on ronayers, there's only 1 helmet lock you can buy, not lock code specific.

I have a few, if you tell me the letter on your key, I'll check to see if there's a match.
You'll still need a locksmith to match the code.

I've never locked my helmet... in 20 years it's never been stolen...
You need an uglier helmet... ;D

 They didn't use lock-tite on the screws at the factory mine fell of after the first week (25 years ago) but they were placed in a bad position anyway  ,use of any bags made them unusable .I'd look at after market , even Walmart  carries them.  but if you don't have a real expensive helmet it won't walk  , I haven't lost one either , it just sits on my passenger back rest. Most people in the US are over 50 and don't need their butt kicked by a "biker"  and most people have the sense to look,  but not touch ,when it comes to motorcycles.

As luck would have it, my helmet got stolen today...

Verslagen, I have the original Suzuki key, but there is no number on it. Where should the number be?

My fault though, I parked near a sketchy looking dude, and thought about moving, but then didn't :(

Yeah it was just a basic black helmet, I guess black is too flashy.

@verslagen, can you show me where I should see the letter code on my key?

Firearms locks have a long, flexible neck. Saddlebags make using the helmet lock impossible. I lock my helmet to the handlebars and set it on the tank. It's not upside down waiting for some idiot to dump a coke in.

It's usually on the shaft next to the plastic grip.

Showing front and back side of both my keys, I do not see any letter on the shaft. Am I missing something?

I have 1 key cut like that, it's a D keyway.

I have 4 helmet locks with that keyway, but no keys.
the back can be taken off and rekeyed by a locksmith.

Thanks verslagen. Would the key need to be modified, or the lock? If the key needs to be modified, then it wouldn't still work with my ignition correct?

The Lock, you modify the key, it won't work in the ignition.
It's easy, the lock has a bunch of wafers, the locksmith swaps them around or replaces them with others.
$10 including shipping
