Can you tell me if the newest Daytona 955i has a helmet lock?

My 05 doesn't. If it does I don't know where it's at?
I use a Kimber gun lock which works perfectly.

Don't have a picture. It's just a small cable lock about 7 inches long. It fits around the outside of the action and stock so you can't close the bolt. I loop it through the helmet chinguard and the left side passenger footpeg.
Last I heard if you call Kimber and tell them you need a lock for their bolt action rifle they would send you one for free.

I lied. The cable is 15 inches long stretched all the way out which leaves about 7.5 inches in length when locked. The lock body and the cable are plastic coated. Really neat deal.

Actually on the back seat when you open it up it has those metal things that you put the d-ring througth- 2 of them, one one each side., then lock the back seat in place, but like mine, I don't us ethe back seat, I use the cowling and therefore do not have a factory way to lock it.

I believe that the two metal hooks on the inside of the rear seat fold outward to create hook points for tiedowns. Thats how I use mine when I ride to the gym. The rear seat actually has a couple of divits cut into the underside so the hooks don't rub the side cowling.

Is that what they are used for? I always thought they were for the helmets. My buddy had a CBR900 and they had the same thing and he said they were for the helmet, that is why I thought that.
I never lock my helmet anyways. Even on the FZR I had that had the lock. DOn't trust people walking around.
