I did the Radio Shack siren and it woks great. Bst of all it only cost $5.00.
Sounds like a good deal on the siren and I'll definitely keep that in mind but I was wanting to know about the optional beeper.
They claim the beeper has a several hundred foot range. You can be in a restaurant and if someone is messing with the bike your beeper goes off to let you know.
I have the full system on my '08. I was having lunch in a bar/restaurant on Whiskey Row, Prescott, AZ.. I was located in the back of the building probably more than 50yds. from my bike when my pager went off. Some "harmless" admirers decided to sit on my bike and in the process brought the bike up on two wheels. I would say the unit works as advertised.
I had the full setup on my RK alarm, siren and pager. I used it a few times when I first got it then pretty much left it in the drawer in the kitchen and the battery went dead and I never for the next year and a half ever used it. Threw it in the saddle bag when I sold the bike and haven't missed it. It worked fine when I used it.
My bike came with the key fob. I just bought the siren and pager system. It utilizes an FM channel to communicate and says it's up to a 1/2 mile range. Farthest I could ever be is 100 yards I'd imagine, so no worries here. I'll report how well it works when I get it. I plan on testing it with my wife by going down my street and having her move it around in the garage to make it go off.
It seems as every place I go the popo are there. ( nothing I did wrong ) but how much better of a security system could you get ???
I think the worries of most people who get these are those that stay overnight at places. Bike weeks and other trips that I'm planning overnight stays at hotels, motels, cottages, etc... Good thieves can grab a bike in less then 5 minutes and they don't need to unlock the handlebars to do it. It's easy for a couple people to pick up the front end and roll it into a closed trailer and drive away. I have no worries about restaurants or store stops.
