Backpack recommendations - big enough to put a helmet inside.

Before I get on the phone to Infinitiy, Sportsbikeshop etc, I thought I would check on here and see if anyone suggest a backpack that you can fit a helmet inside..? Im guessing 30L or bigger. Budget is £100 and it would be handy if it has zippable side pockets.

My old Hien Gericke backpack was a 31L and I could just about fit a helmet inside.

BBROWN1664:
Having seen the damage a backpack can do to someone's back in an accident i would never suggest that one be worn on a motorbike. Have a look at tail packs that have straps to carry around rather than a dedicated backpack. I cant suggest anything though as i always use the topbox for storing my helmet when parked.

I agree, if you have an Off and land on your back on a helmet, you're at risk of serious injury or death.

My tank bag expands sufficiently to take a helmet, or a cargo net on the back seat would work.

Carrying the helmet in the backpack is for when Im OFF the bike, I recently got refused entry to a building for just trying to walk in while carrying it.

WTF? Did they think you were going to use it as a weapon or something...?!
