Went last year for the first time - zero problems. All I ever lock is the ignition.
FYI - it's also a big week for tow-trucks. There was a bike parked 1 foot into the yellow curb and they were hooking it up & towing it away. Another one - huge grocery store parking lot, signs say 2 hour parking. There were a bunch of tow trucks towing away bikes that were parked there for 4 hours.
I found the easiest place to park was Main Street as there are always bikes coming/going.
If you're camping, you could always go this route at night...

Pay your insurance premiums. If they want it, they're gonna get it.
I would also agree with the earlier post concerning fraud. I bet there is more of those cases than one would think.

I thought the same thing looking at that pic.... I love the bike but not enough to be under it in the morning...

This year is my first trip to Sturgis & have heard that every year bikes are stolen at the rally. While I'm not too worried, I was curious if any of you take extra measures of security such as the rotor locks on the front brake disc. Appreciate any info on this.
Thanks,

I simply make sure I park close to the $35K bikes with some major bling on them..takes the thought away from my ride!
