A lot of jap bikes have a way of hanging the helmet off the side of the rear pilon by a hook. Has anyone done anything like this?

Best solution for some:
Look up in Search, "helmet holder"

Try hanging it off the right passenger peg.

Ztechnics makes a double helmet lock/holder that goes under the license plate.

I rednecked a lockable helmet holder.
very easy and it works. I'll try to explain and I'll post pix if I remember.
1. remove pass seat.
2. using a hose clamp attache a climbing ring, like the mountain climbers use to the sub frame under the seat.
3. hook strap loops through climbing ring and replace seat and lock.
I hope I explained well enough.

Great idea! Done properly it would be a real bear to cut te helmet off the bike. Off to the hardware store time to tinker!

I forgot to say,
this does not have to be a real climbing rope ring...
you can use the cheap key chain type sold everywhere.
