Helmet Lock
A guy at work just got a '08 rr and has been leaving his helmet sitting on the passenger pegs I've read that there is a cable loop (don't think he got one with the bike) Anybody have pics of how that would work? If I had the bike and the cable in front of me I'm sure I could figure it out but I only got to look under his seat for a minute
We tried that... took both of us and not easy to do.
What do you guys do to secure your helmets?
under the passenger seat of the 600rr there are two hooks at the front and one at the rear that hold the seat on. to lock up a helmet you take the big hook on your helmet strap and place it on one of the 2 front metal hooks that hold the pillion seat on. put the seat back on over the hook. push it down until it locks.

i just use the piece under the seat that sticks out there is two pices that stick out. Take the chin strap(if helmet is on your head im taking about the stra on left side of your face.) off your helmet that has the buckle on it and put the piece from seat threw buckle. only put it threw one piece of buckle otherwise its pain in butt to lock seat in then press firmly on the seat. Only thing is you have to take the strap and tuck it into the helmet other wise it will just hang and dangle. if you need picks i can send you a couple i know when i got my first bike i didnt undersand how to do it either.

Here ya go. You slip it through the metal clasp on your helmet strap, then fold it and place both loops over the passenger seat hole. I left the seat off so you can see what I'm talking about. You'd obviously lock the seat back in place to secure the helmet. Tell him to feel around inside the tail fairing, it may have slipped down in there. I always loop mine over those holes when not in use to prevent this:
If his is missing, he can just buy some braided steel and "pinch clamps" to make his own. I've seen carbon fiber ones floating around, too.
