But like I said in the other thread, those things are just deturants for the average POS thief. If someone really wants your bike, they're going to take it.

If a Prospect is told to get your bike he will. Four guys and a steel bar and the bike is gone.

Insurance, get a new bike. Only problem with that is you lose all your mods. Maybe not so bad if you enjoy doing them though!

Yeah. I lock my bike up and keep it in sight. But. For backup. I keep this in play. Take that, BITCH.

Apparently you're not really involved with your bike if that's how you think.

Not the best way to look at, letting them take it only emboldens the maggots to do it again and any increase in claims will eventually lead to increased premiums for everyone

Remote kill switch

Has anyone ever wired in a remote switch to an ignition wire? I've seen them as small as a "tick tack" box. It would be good for short term shut offs, when stopping at the local watering hole, or running into the store for something. No keys to mess with just a remote button to kill or enable! Doable?

I use a gun trigger lock just install the post through one of the holes in rotor and squeeze the two half's together. there is rubber on both half's so it wont scratch the metal surface its bright yellow so it can be seen and best of all they are free at most police stations. only use when traveling over nite. put one on both rotors cheap insurance.
