On the rear end of the compartment underneath the seat, there is the helmet fastening cable (1) (see page 43). Insert the cable into the helmet, slide the end of the cable onto the pin (2). Leave helmet hanging outside and refit the seat. Warning This system is intended to lock your helmet safely when you park your motorcycle. Never leave the helmet hanging outside when riding or it may get in the way and make you lose control of the motorcycle.

Slide the front ends of the seat bottom underneath the frame U-tube and push down on the rear end of the seat until you hear the catch click.
