Don't let it hang down under any means. It could get caught up in the suspension and down you go.

I don't do it, but look into a bungee net. It's the only safe way to secure anything to the back seat while riding.

i wouldnt do the bungee nets.....i went to a sporting goods store and bought (3) cinch straps....

take the rear seat off fasten the chin strap of the spare helmet and wrap one strap arounfd the chinstrap a few times and run it under and around the rear seat.....then take the other 2.....raise the helmet shield and strap the chin-bar of the helmet throught the seat strap.....once everything is tied down....stuff the extra strap in the helmet and put the shield down, pop the helmet/rear seat back on....

its kind of a pain, but that helmet aint going no where...

bungee hooks scratch and ive seen a few some un-done and the helmet go bouncing down the highway....lol
