I release the seat with the key, lift/loosen it a little. On the right side of the Honda (the left doesn't work) I feed the helmet strap with the ratchet (or teeth) from the top around the horizontal frame/bar just exposed by lifting the seat. Holding the helmet with my knees, the mentioned strap with my left hand, I reach with my right hand for the other strap (the one with the buckle), and join ratchet and buckle. A push on the seat to lock it and I am done.
Why is this good (enough) ? The geometry is such that, when compared to the useless helmet lock on the left, the straps are much tighter and harder to reach when the seat is down. And the helmet's underside is firmly positioned against frame and seat. This position makes it also very hard for the goofs to leave "gifts".
Open the helmet window and drop off a "gift". Close helmet window.
... also when my sweet CB was parked in your driveway ?
