I always carry my stuff with me, I don’t trust anyone, like someone said above, this shit is too expensive to just leave laying around.

This scored me a conversation with a 400lb sexy Irish guy today 😃

That’s pretty cool about the lock under the pass seat. I’ll check it out tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up :tup:

yea it’s sort of a pain in the ass on the r6… it’s a nice helmet HOLDER, as the chances of the helmet falling out are slim to none… as far as SECURITY, i’d give it a big :tdown:

If I’m going to be away from the bike for a while (i.e. out of sight) I take it with me. I’ll lock it to the bike if I’m running in and out of someplace or will be in sight of the bike.

Always used to just lock mine to my bike at buff state.

But then again, I’m old, and buff state was way less ghetto then. Now I’d be worried to leave the bike, let alone the helmet.

I usually leave my helmet locked to the bike and my jacket just sitting on it.

But i rarely am out of sight of my bike when i am off it…

Helmets?!?!??! real men don’t even wear them.

/floridamentality.

christian… I dont know why you even wear one, your helmet is not very protective. (Funny story, i saw a guy on an old honda cb the other day by the shuttle launch, I took a pic, he kinda looked like you, too bad its a dark pic)

Not that it makes it THAT much better, but I rarely leave the city, and frequently am only at the same speeds that bicycles can reach…
