Helmet lock relocation
02/22/17 at 22:43:37
 
After relocating my turn signals due to saddle bag installation I wanted to make a helmet lock that was out of the way of heat or paint. That being said I chose the handle bars. I made one of these for my Triumph but the S40 bars are different. Here is a pic to start with. It looks like a handlebar weight.

Something locked up. To big of a pic. I'll try again. I place the d ring into the slot underneath then push it back in and the helmet hangs without touching the tank

I made them in my garage. It's all about customizing in a small way. Smiley

You could sell a few in the market place! I know I'd be interested.

I got a flexible, rubber coated loop lock for a gun. Goes around the handlebars and the chin guard.
The OEM setup is an invitation for some jakkass to dump a coke in my helmet.

I've never had that happen but I put my gloves in the helmet just in case. I figure it's better than just hanging it on the mirror. It keeps the honest people honest.

If you pay for my plane ticket I'll even install it for you mate! Grin I'd like another trip down under.
