RE: HD security system
I have it installed on my bike. I added the Security System Smart Siren II and rechargeable pager-receiver.
I figure it might come in handyovernight ina motel or leaving my bike in a parking lot during dinner or shopping. I don't delude myself inthinking that it will do anythingto detera professional thief. Having said that I imagine there are lotsmore nonprofessional thiefs out there than pros. If they see the red key blinking they might just look around for a different bike than mine.
FYI the Smart Siren is loud enough to get people's attention.

RE: HD security system
So are these sirens like the ones in cages that go off for no damn reason and embarass the hell out of you. Maybe even get you a ticket. Wouldn't mind having one to give me some peace of mind about people messing with the bike while I'm at the beach or whatever but I don't want to be worrying about false alarms.

Absolutely worth it.
Thieves evaluate cost-risk / result ratio like anybody else setting to a task. If they can choose, they'll choose the "not worth it" people bikes over yours.
Moreover, for any "pro" (whatever that means) out there there are a thousand amateurs.
100% security does not exsist. But you may "harden" the target and make your chances a hell of a lot better.
A bulletproof vest won't make you invulnerable, but beats the hell out of wearing a bullseye, right?
