Buy a matching bike. Very Happy

One of the BMWs (F650CS) has a storage area where the petrol tank normally sits.

That's a lot of money to spend on a disposable piece of kit. Confused

If it is, that's very expensive for someone who hasn't even passed their test yet (according to their sig). I wonder what bike will be bought when they do - MV Augusta F4 Senna perhaps Smile

Uber pricey lid even at £400 but I hear that it barely feels like you're wearing the thing.

As for storage I think Arai might do helmet bags but if that fails then buy one of those wacky old american bowling ball bags....

Don't whatever you do buy a 650CS, they blow, and that dip for storing helmets is a pain in the arse......
