Something To Hold A Passenger Helmet - SV650.org

07-09-06, 06:51 PM

Short of letting it flop around on the side of the bike by the helmet lock, what is a good method/device for keeping a passenger helmet on the bike. (Say, for example, when going to pick someone up who doesn't have one so you bring an extra.)

Bungee net on to the pillion seat.

I've never had a problem with it "at speed"

a cargo net (bungee net) is the best way to carry a spare lid on the pillion seat

I've got one of those Knox rucksacks, and I wouldn't like to try to ride a bike with a helmet stuffed in the bottom - at a pinch you could walk about with one, but I reckon that would be quite uncomfortable

One of these Quicksilver rucksacks:

Perfectly lid-sized. Good bags too, though not cheap- I've used mine daily for about two and a half years now, with some hefty stuff in it sometimes, and it's been great. Shame it's not waterproof though.
