I had the same problem, one thing to check - Are you putting the helmet in with the chin bar locked ? try putting it in with the chin bar unlocked it gave me the extra inch i needed , as the chin bar was raising the helmet up just enough to foul.Marv said:I have just purchased a shiny new bright yellow Nolan N104 helmet. I haven't received it yet and wondered where other riders store their helmets when their bike is parked. My old HJC-IS-33 helmet would not fit in the under seat storage and when put in the Givi box it got badly scratched over time. I was thinking of making a plastic covered wire lanyard with a pressed loop at the ends and locking the helmet to one of the hand rails.
Any better suggestions would be appreciated.
BTW: I purchased the helmet at Competition Accessory's on the internet. Their price were $149 less then any one else with free shipping, no sales tax and no restocking fees if I don't like it.

After doing a little research on this site I did find some ideas on how to use the mounting hook under the seat. It worked fine with my old helmet that has D rings. It will not work with my new helmet as it has no D rings. I plan to mount the helmet to the hand rail or the rack on top of my Givi V46 box with a steel lanyard through the modular section of the helmet......unless someone has a better idea.
