Nice white one. But the thing that amazes me most is that you are the first person I have seen using the helmet hook under the seat

The PCX has a helmet hook?

haha, someone hasn't read the manual

ye the pcx has a helmet hook, open your seat and look toward the front next to the idle switch (unless you are in the states) and there it is

Yeah, it works pretty well...I put a Helmet Cable with it from a Honda 800 VFR Interceptor (Longer) and it's easier to use. Unless I'm "packed" on a long Trip, I just lock it inside the 45 Litre GIVI Top Case most of the time now....

Hey Skuuter you live in a very beautiful area, i'm green with envy. I live in a smelly industrial town called Widnes
which is just about the armpit of Britain. But i shall escape to the mountains one day, me and my PCX.

Didn't you guys ever wonder what the little strap with two loops in the toolkit was for? You take one loop, loop it around the little hook, string your helmet onto the strap, then loop the other end on the hook to secure your helmet.

Whats stopping someone stealing the helmet though if you do that?

You loop the strap through the metal D rings on the helmet, so that a thief would have to slash the chin strap to steal the helmet.

Oh ok I get it now

I might actually use that then. I did wonder what that weird little strap thing was for.

I guess I"m the weird one for reading the manual and knowing what it was....

Had a look in the manual too first day I got it to see what it was for. Have used it a few times too when jacket went under seat while shopping

You don't want to be using a helmet hook...
Pal of mine once returned to find that in his absence, somebody had used his helmet for a chamber pot.

That's absolutely gnarly. I use mine all the time, I hope that never happens to me...
