Motorcycle Security

Security for a motorcycle is about layering. When on the road this is doubly important. First and foremost the bikes will be covered. It's the old 'out of sight' maxim.

We'll also be using a Bully disk brake lock. These things are virtually indestructible. We've got a Bully reminder cable as well so that we don't mistakenly drive off without unlocking.

Finally we had our good friends at RideNow Clearwater install a Scorpio alarm. This has a remote/pager so that in the event someone is messing with the bike it will alert us even if we can't hear the siren going off.

The rest is just alertness and making sure we park in relatively safe, well lit areas.

Some good tips, but don't forget a good Sold Secure ground anchor to keep your bike fixed to the floor! :-)
