top box woes

right, im possibly (for possibly read definately) being silly, but whats the
smartest way to make sure that a spare helmet in the top box doesnt get
flung about to buggery every time i go on a commute into work etc.

Some carefully cut foam?

 

a) Get the same size head as me.

b) Put the helmet in an Givi E460 topbox which is a snug fit.

c) Fasten up the topbox's elasticated straps.

d) (Optional) Use a helmet bag to protect the paintjob.

 

Foam, innit. Nice big block of it either side (and above/below
perhaps) to stop the lid bashing about.

 

Leave it at home?

 

too late, got the honda one

oh, ahh, err, this one dont have any

tried that...one helmet got bounced around so much, most of the padding came
away from the shell.

 

bird in work doesnt take kindly to that, when i cant take her out for a ride
at lunch

 

Bungee(s).

You'd be amazed what you can get in a topbox with the use of a few bits
of elastic with hooks on the ends

Try growing two heads and wearing the spare one ;-)

 

Take her into the shed then ;-)

 

sod that when her flat is less than 10 mins away ;-)

I carry a Belstaff oversuit, stuffed into the bumbag, and a wooly jumper in
my topbox. This seems to be quite an effective shock absorber in my Givi
E46 topbox. Although, if it rains or gets cold then the helmet would bounce
around I suppose.

 

1. Leave it at work when not in use

2. cargo net to pillion seat when in motion, move to top box on arrival

 

Leave it at work?

Have you heard back from the A Team about a job vacancy yet?

 

Grimly Curmudgeon says...

And mine, I was rubbed up by 2 MCN girls today

 

So you want to put *your* helmet in *her* box without it flopping
around? Unfortunately I think I get the picture now.

 

I had someone elses bladder in my box last week. I even phoned Kay to
tell her.

It isn't every day you can say "I've just picked up someone's bladder
and stuck it in my box"

 

That's a bit like my day, as I was also rubbed up....

....the wrong way by several time wasting clowns and a bunch of
Americans.
