Although the rear trunk on
the Helix has a fairly secure lock, and the steering can be locked at
a hard-turn position, it is still a little difficult to be sure your costly
helmet and armored riding jacket are safe if left on the scooter while
you stop for a lunch break.

Browsing the WWW, I found a firm making security cables for computers. High strength tempered steel, and plastic coated. This (1/8 inch by 24 inches) coiled cable was only a few dollars delivered to my door. It might be cut with a bolt-cutter, but not by a knife, not even a BIG knife! |

![]() The cable can be had with your choice of terminations -- these are swaged loops at $1.00 each As you see, the loops fit easily in the Helix's helmet holder space. A much longer cable of this type could easily be used here without being noticeably obtrusive. The cable came from "The Tufnut Works" -- -- (http://www.tufnut.com) located in Tesuque, New Mexico. Check them out! |
