Safety first, people always say. When it comes to a helmet, and
gear, you may be fully covered -like wearing leather
motorcycle pants, motorcycle
riding jackets, and motorcycle
rain gear to make the riding of your vehicle safer. But what if the locks
of the motorcycle itself? Motorcycles are expensive, heavy, and have the
potential to be stolen. That is why quality matters over quantity and getting a
good lock.
Different Types of Locks
However, many people will tell you to use one method, whether it
be a fork lock, a disk lock, or maybe even a chain. They are all good ideas to
keep the smaller thieves, and criminals of opportunity at bay. But some go well
beyond the norm, and they are the ones you need to prepare for. But here is a
tip, keep those locks and chains off the ground. This reduces the amount of
leverage it. You can further hinder or prevent a thief's attempt by adding a
Killswitch or alarm. Both would be quite clever. After all, a motorcycle is
valuable.
Add a spanner to a thief's plan by getting yourself an ABUS Granit
DetectoXPlus 8077. Made of very special hardened steel, it is user-friendly, so
no worries about installation. Furthermore, any tampering will trigger the
sensor and let out a major racket. The lock even reminds you of certain sounds
to lock your motorcycle, and if it is dark, no worries! The key has a built-in
light allowing you to see in the dark - which may occur quite frequently as a
motorcyclist.
For an additional lock, you can always go for a HelmetLokGenII 4-
digit lock. It prevents you from having to lug around all your heavy gear in
fear of getting stolen. This lock allows you to secure your gear at the bike
itself. Although it may not be bolt-cutter proof (however in all fairness, few
locks are). It certainly can prevent multiple crimes of opportunity that are a
direct threat to your motorcycle and your equipment.
Another lock that may just suit your fancy is the Gorilla
Automotive 9000-2R Motorcycle Alarm with Two Transmitters. It is a power lock,
having three powerful sensors that can trigger a siren alarm, and remote
control to lock and unlock it. To install it takes a mere half an hour, making
life easy, simple, safe, and quick when it comes to the security of your
motorcycle.
You can consider the OnGuard 8019L Mastiff Quad Chain Lock used
for A bit more of an old-school approach. Made of hardened reinforced steel,
breaking this lock will be incredibly difficult, as it is built and designed in
an overkill mode. The more security, the better one could say.
Or you could go for Superman's weakness, the Kryptonite NY
Fahgettaboudit. Sounds close to telling thieves forget-about-it, Which is a
beef-sized chain used to lock up your motorcycle. With a high-security disk
lock and asymmetrical chain, no one will be accessing your motorcycle anytime
soon.
