At the dinner table tonight, I bemoaned the lack of a helmet tab, and said I didn't want to add another lock, and have to carry another key. Mary suggested I might add a tab to the R12. Hmm.
Turns out there *are* two tabs under the R12R seat: their ends hold up the front of the seat. But their entire front curved portion is available, and there's a handy gap in the plastic bodywork immediately below. Voila:
It's more fiddly than the RS's lock (a small relief filed into the inward-facing edge of the bottom of the plastic piece won't show, and will facilitate feeding the cable), but it's clean and I already had the bits.
(added later): I fed the cable under the gloss plastic trim piece. A few inches forward, at the aft end of the matte injector cover, there's much more room, and it's easy to feed the cable through.
