THE HELMET HOOK one particular case the ground was swarming with ants, that would no doubt have been in the helmet in no time. The upside down hanging nature of the helmet when using a Helmet Hook is perfect for holding the riders gloves too. While the Helmet Hook is easy to fit, in some cases you might have to play around with how you do it, comprehensive instructions are provided yet some commonsense might also be needed. Helmet Hook acknowledge that fitting the product to Suzuki V-stroms can be a little difficult and do provide instructions for these bikes. We also found that while the Helmet Hook is easily fitted to a BMW F800GS Adventure, with end weights and handguards, and is in fact almost hidden from view when no helmet is using the hook, it isn't so simple to fit to a standard F800GS with the factory hand guards. The helmet hook is well made and even allows for a lock to be fitted, providing extra security for your helmet. Now fitted to the Traverse bikes, we won't be going anywhere without having our helmets securely fitted to our bikes. The helmet hook retails for around AU$13.00 and can be found at either www.thehelmethook.com or www. helmethookaustralia.com TRAVERSE 101
