Alarm systems
Can anyone recommend a good alarm system, with a gps tracker, a siren. For my 16 street glide.
The scorpion srx 900. Seems to have good reviews, but I don’t see if it has a gps tracker.
The scorpion core s, looks good. But has horrible reviews.
I see Harley makes some systems. But I didn’t see one with a gps tracker.

This question has been asked in the past with no specific recommendations for tried and true motorcycle GPS tracking devices and services. I understand Lojack used to have a tracking device and service for motorcycles, but they no longer offer it. So, from what I've been able to learn from limited searching, there are several devices out there that can track a vehicle, but I couldn't find anything specific to motorcycles. Here's one that looks interesting and it might work, but I'm not willing to be a guinea pig. The thing I like about it is it's small and it looks like it could be hidden under the seat without being easily detected and, another plus, it can be hardwired to the battery. Why don't you buy one, install it and report back how it performs?

Before going any further, I just wish to make clear I am in no way affiliated with USFT. I am just a VERY happy customer.
I use the US Fleet Tracker PT-V3. https://www.usfleettracking.com/ptv3
I am extremely happy with it. My wife is also extremely happy with it! In addition to my wife feeling better when I am running ironbutt rides because she can see where I am, rate of travel and whether the bike is turned on or off, every 10 seconds, it's also the only tracker allowed for the Hoka Hey and I use it for IBA certifications by uploading the data to spotwalla. Phew, I know, too long of a sentence, lol.
There are no contracts as well for the service. Just $29.99 per month. Oh, it also saves the data for a month or two so you can go back and see the route you rode, or export the data for IBA verifications.
Here are a couple I posted to spotwalla:

https://spotwalla.com/tripViewer.php?id=1b9285bbb75f4d958c&hoursPast=0&s howAll=yes
Example of historical playback: (note, if watching live, you would see the bike update position every 10 seconds. You can also set up text alerts for stuff like ignore on and ignition off.)
NOTE: Real website image is not grainy like above.
There are lots of things that can be done with this GPS.

Take a look at this one

1. I had to remember to start and stop it. (I just like starting and going, lol, especially on timed IBA rides)
2. There were many times it lost signal and stopped on its own.
3. Made my phone too hot in the summer
4. Had to rely on the phone to be charged and working properly
5. There were instances where mileage tracked was just flat out wrong.

Boardtracker is the way to go. Now the remote pager for it hasn't impressed me. Seems to eat batteries and the range doesn't seem to be anywhere near what they claim.
