Please don't do this. I sent one of my Arai Astros to Arai for inspection after I accidently biffed it into a revolving door and the helmet came back with a letter telling me not to use the helmet ever again as it had 'sustained lining damage presumed to be from hanging on a m/c mirror' I rang them up at Phoenix to find out more and they said that this was a very common way of damaging a lid, it doesn't take much force for the side of the mirror to slice into the polystyrene liner. £450 of helmet written off.
I always put mine on the ground if possible or if it's raining I lock it into the helmet holder on the seat catch.
