Whats the best lock? Best Alarm? what do you use?

We talked about this here and there in other threads, but never really in depth that I can recall or find in a search.

Yeah same here..

**ADVICE FOR DISC LOCK USERS***
especially the first few times... carry a golf ball place tab, those little plastic things they put on the putting greens to keep their place, with your disc lock. When you put it on, put the plastic thing in your igniton so you can't get your key in w/o removing it. You will be glad when you get back 3 hours later and go to put your key in and take off...

thats a little handy reminder, good idea..!! provided you dont push that little plastic thing down in ur iginition to hard right.... that could suck ;)

We have a few of these around too if any ones interesting in buying.

all u have to do is fabricate alittle seat on the back of ur kat, and u can bring one of those beasts along with you wherever u go. ;)

after seeing that pen trick with the lock awhile back...definately makes me alittle leary to say the least.

I like those alarms, scorpions i believe, and probably others as well, that have the pager on them that goes off if the bike alarm is tripped. but whats the range on those pagers.?

I don't use any on mine. I'm very particular about where I park my bike though. It's in the garage when at home. At work, there is motorcycle parking available at the top of the lot. I only use it for errands around town if I will be able to immediately see it from whatever store I go into. It's never left in a huge crowded parking lot and it's never parked downtown.

i wish they'd get motorcycle parking at our work garage as well, they've been talking about it, and there's enuff bikes there to warrant it for sure. But at this point we just make our own spaces and keep them out in the open with the guards can see them. better than nothing I guess.

Plain and Simple...if someone wants your bike, they're gonna get it. It only takes 2 guys and 30 seconds to lift a bike into the back of a truck and take off. If there's a lock, there's someone out there that can pick it. Unfortunately that's just how it is. But you can help eliminate some of these by parking in well-lit areas, parking in the front of buildings etc. Just be careful out there...

all to true unfortunately...people really suck..go out and get your own damn bike like the rest of us!!!!

atleast a disc lock will help deter ur average generic goofball out to have a good time at your expense though..might make him think twice atleast...pretty much all you can ask for i suppose
