preventing theft ?
I always tote a full bike cover with me on road trips. When stopped for the night unfold it and cover up the bike so no one can see what I have. I don't leave anything on the bike I don't want to loose and if a hard point is available I use a Cobalt security cable(need an acetylene torch to cut). i do like the idea of the Goldwing cover though.

I am guessing I am like most people. I park in well light areas, lock the ignition, the the forks, empty the bags of everything and check on it periodically. I cant imagine the feeling of having a bike stolen, thats gotta suck though. I try to be as careful as possible and let insurance handle the rest.

To the guy who's worried he'll forget the brake lock and dump his ride. Ahh, mine has a bright red cable you're supposed to hang on the throttle. If you think you might still forget it, double think your decision to own a motorcycle!

No matter how big of a gun you have, you still have to catch them. In that case, I have a nice Louisville Slugger.

I know it's fun to be a tough guy on the internet, but it just makes you look foolish. 30+ years of riding, slick. I've seen people who have used a disc lock for decades forget it's there and dump it.
