i always lockdown my stuff when it's not in my line of sight. i've lost three helmets in 46 years of riding,still leave my helmet hanging on my foot board. oh, and some jack--- stole my 91 heritage,walked away from it for 70 seconds and it was gone. it can happen to anyone. if i ever catch anyone screwing with my house,car or bikes i think i would stomp on them until they quit breathing and them just stuff their dead body in a dumpster and be done with it. no need to get the cops involved. they have other things going on.

I keep the bags locked, but I removed the gas cap lock, I also just set the remote alarm on the bike.

I would say that I do not generally lock my bike, unless I'm going to be away from it for a while.

I do try to lock stuff but have forgotten a few times and have never lost anything off the bike? I have had lots of locked stuff stolen from cars/trucks/houses?

Try to always lock bags, pak and forks. At least I tried, for insurance purposes, and it keeps me in the habit of riding with the bags and pak locked so they won't be flying open going down the road, don't ask me how I know

Growing up and living outside of NYC my whole life, every f*ckin thing gets locked up no matter where I'm at. If I'm at a bar and can't see my bike, even if it is locked up I will go out to check on it.
