helmet lock for FZ6?

[IanHoots]

Has anyone attempted to install a helmet lock? My old ZR-7 was factory fitted with one in the same location as the lock to remove the seat on my FZ6. The ZR-7 lock was positioned perfectly for the pillion foot peg to support the weight of the helmet and the "D" shaped ring on the strap went through the lock

I am hoping someone has found an area on the frame to mount one.

Having to take the helmet everywhere I go is starting to wear thin. My Shark is brand new and I don't trust to leave it on the handle bars like some people.

I design and make helmet lock brackets for the FZ6 (and others).

Using a Yamaha lock, part # 4R8-21308-01-00 4R8-21308-01-00 HELMET HANGER ASSY $35.36

This lock assembly allows you to use your ignition key for the same lock after re-keying.

Available in black or silver, no mods to the bike, $25 plus shipping (does NOT include the lock assembly)

The white, rectangular piece is "helicopter" leading edge tape. It wraps around the frame before the bracket
and allows for mounting W/O scratching the frame..

There IS room for two brackets (if needed), as shown below and FORWARD of the pillion peg (same side)

I do ship to most places out of the US(slightly additional shipping fee). Please E-mail me directly and
put FZ6 in the header. ( [email protected])

...and my bike.

I highly recommend Scott's work. He also did a mount for my heated gear plug on the other side.

Couldn't find your pic for some reason Tom,,,

Here's the prototype outlet plug bracket (for a Powerlet, BMW style outlet) made for Tom,
again, simply clamps around the frame:

I have 07 and it has a factory helmet lock, seems to be the same place as was on your zr7, by the seat lock.

Thanks for all the info. I'll order the part no that Townsends gave me and take it to my locksmith. The pipe mount I can fab up at work. Thanks again. That's saved me a lot of guess work.

The S1's don't have a lock, period.


Ian,

You can re-key that lock yourself, its not hard.. Here's a link on how to do it:

Ditto what Scott said. I re keyed my helmet lock in 5 minutes using the procedure in the above link. Was easy. One of the best farkles I added to my S 1.

That's very informative, thanks. I've never had a crack at doing it myself, as my locksmith is cheap as chips. It looks easier than I thought, I'll have a go this time.
