Thanks to this hook no more need to carry the crash
helmet with you every time you park your scooter.

slot and fix the loop on the hook (2 - Fig. 11).
Now lower the seat and lock it.
To release the crash helmet from the hook, lift up the
seat, release the wire from the hook and lower the seat
taking care that the wire doesn’t get crushed and that

where.
Do not use the hook to lift up or to draw the
scooter (or to other aims) as it is designed
only to secure the scooter once it is parked.
