Locking Your Bike
#22
Am I missing something here??? Are you guys telling me your bikes dont come with a siren as standard??? Wow I know different markets have different specifications, but seriously $28000 of bike WITHOUT a alarm siren seems a bit wrong to me. Here in UK sirens have been fitted as standard since 2002!! Even sportsters have them.

Just finished reading through everyone's post, very good ideas. I love the idea about a Honda cover. I might just go to my local Honda dealer and get one (or online). About the big chain idea... My thoughts are you need to put it through the rear rim and frame or rear rim to rear rim on your buddies bike. Using the chain on the front rim and forks is useless you can just pick up the front end. I also have the siren and audio warning is always good.
So with all that being said I guess the best thing would be to lock all the locks on the bike including the fork lock. Use the siren and pager. Lock the back rim to the frame or your buddies bike with a big covered chain. AND BEST OF ALL PUT A NON HARLEY COVER ON THE BIKE. Not only will people walk by, it will also help keep the bike dry if it rains. hahaha

I added the HD Siren to my alarm, lock the fork, use HD rotor lock, & cover my bike with a $19.95 Wally Mart cover. If I'm at a motel where I can't park in front of my room, I'll ask if I can park in front of main door. I've always been able to make that work. I've even taken off my saddle bags & carry them to my room.
