How would you guys carry an extra helmet?

I have a friend in the cities I've been meaning to go visit one of these days, and promised to give her a ride some day, but she doesn't own any gear. What would be the easiest way to carry an extra helmet with me on the ride up there?

The best way I can figure is strap it through the back seat with a bungee cord or something hooked through or onto the helmet somehow.

Any suggestions?

Re: How would you guys carry an extra helmet?

What you need to do is crash your bike so you don't care if the tail gets scuffed by the helmet hanging off the holder.  If you choose not to follow these instructions, a cargo net may do the trick.  Since you're on a Kawi, we know you won't be doing any wheelies or going very fast, so the net should hold up.  You're welcome in advance for another winning answer.


If loud pipes save lives, imagine what learning to ride could do.

Just ride like a Floridian, no helmet jacket or gloves,  and make sure your friend wears a bikini and flip flops

I've got a rig called "Helmet Bra"...    Holds it on the passenger seat with a couple adjustable side straps.  It's 20 years old so I have no idea where it came from but it works well.  Check AEROSTICH.COM

Someone makes a back pack or a back pack/ tank bag that will carry a helmet

Probably not going, but I'll be in Hastings anyway, so maybe.
