Welcome AlphaJoe, to the world of spyder roadsters.I also came from a Burgman 400 and understand about the storage problem. I started out with a leather Bell handlebar bag strapped across my handlebars but found a Motocentric Cruiser Tool Bag that is a little better. I carry a bottle of water, house keys and garage door opener in it.
As for securring your helmet most of the time I just put it in the frunk but for time when I have something else in the frunk I made a helmet holder that holds the helmet just to the side of the frunk. If you open the frunk and look at the back top of the frunk you will see plastic removable cover that covers some wiring connections. I just drilled a small hole in the plastic removable cover and put a bolt and nut through it. Then I hook the strap on the bolt and close the frunk. helmet secured neat as you please and only about .50 cents for a couple nut and one bolt.
Hope this gives you some ideas.
