I haven't locked my ignition in 2 yrs

 

Locks only stop an honest person. They don't stop a thief. I pay my insurance premiums.

 

If there's at a higher risk of my bike being stolen, I show up on my BMW...not that I want it stolen, it's that not too many thugs want one. Seriously, as others have mentioned, locks only keep the honest people out. If they want it, they'll find a way to take it. I even leave my helmet unsecured. Besides you only have to worry about that 1%, right.

 

After seeing the kind of stuff some of you do to keep your bike from getting stolen, I wonder what you do to keep your cars from getting stolen. Everyone got the club? Alarms? Chain them to your driveway?

What about people breaking in your house? Do you guys have bars, boobytraps and c-wire?

Sorry, but a lot of that seems like overkill. I close my garage door. If someone can get my garage door open and roll my bike out to a flatbed or truck before I wake up and put two in their face, then they deserve my bike, and my insurance will buy me a new one.

But hey... to each his own.

 

Nice video footage on this UK website showing how easy it is to bust most of the big makes- http://www.almax-security-chains.co.uk/

 

I have the alarm on my bike, it'll probably keep the neighbor kids from stealing it. Otherwise it is insured...if someone steals it I don't want it back. Four guys and a pickup truck can make a bike disappear darn fast.

Where the heck did you find such a perfectly proportioned girl that small?

 

"Locks are only for keeping honest people honest..."
So goes the saying, and I believe it. If someone REALLY wants my bike, well, there's little I can do to completely prevent that from happening.

I keep it in the garage at home, at work, it's right outside the sales counter window. When we go away, to a rally or on vacation, I try to cable it to something solid. If that's not an option, well, I rely on human goodness and my insurance company.

Oh, yeah....

The M/C support sticker on the side cover also acts as a little deterrence.

 

Ok, where can I get one??

I only have a Digital Guard Dawg.

 

With that picture in my mind I can't quit laughing!
