Default Alarm Recommendation

So, in the absence of a "Harley" integrated alarm, I'm exploring other options. Would you all mind sharing your experience with alarms? I'd like one with a paging system. In the past, I've used Scorpion alarms with pagers--but its been at least 10 years since I've bought one. I have a Clifford (DEI) on my truck, but they don't make one that will fit nicely in, or survive the vibes of, a motorcycle.

Thanks.

I had the alarm/siren/pager set up on mine when I bought it because I just have a carport. It's just something for piece of mind to stop the amateur thief. But if 2-3 guys are determined to get it, they're going to get it.

I know that if someone is looking to take a bike, one with a good alarm might be a "pass" for fear of the owner's response... and rightly so. Most thieves are opportunistic--and my bike isn't nice enough or new enough to be "hot" on a pro's list.
With an alarm that let's me know if someone is messing with it, my odds should improve significantly.

Being a hater of pagers, I supplement with a Xena.
