East to install and great quality. More expensive than their Chinese counterparts but how much is your helmet worth.

I went with the same type but the cheap Chinese $8 version. For me anyone can take your helmet if they really want. The D-ring can be cut with light duty bolt cutters or they can just cut the helmet strap and then have a new one sewn on.
But I agree yours is better than mine as mine looks like the hinge pin could be pushed out from either side with not much effort.
For me it just keeps the drive by snatchers from taking my $80 helmet when I am away for a few minutes. I would not trust an expensive helmet to any lock of any expense.

I had a helmet stolen off a previous bike (cut strap) so I try to minimize the risk with these helmets. The marine grade stainless steel chains either connect through the chin of the Shoei or the open face of the HJC to the Kijima , or the open face directly to the Kijima, OR either helmet to the rear hand rail of the Vitpilen. Their also good to thread through one sleeve of leather jacket and connect to the rear hand rail....kinda mix and match.
Having said that I still don't leave anything on my bike for long periods and try to keep it in a secure location.
Lets face it, if a determined thief is persistent ???
PS. i don't advertise the fact that the flip Shoei is a Shoei (out of sight out of naughty mind)
