if you need a hand fitting the alarm gimme a shout secureing wise a good ground anchor and chain and lock, disc locks,the list could be endless but what i use at home is alarm/immobiliser ground anchor two chains padlocks 3 disclocks (one for each disc) garage alarm cctv insurance get though that without wakeing me up or ower lass your welcome to pinch the bike lol but that said that is for at home on the road two disc locks alarm/immobiliser chain and padlock depending where i am going but always feel safer locking my bike discs front and rear and to any stationary non moveing object(lampost fence rail anything that is around to secure it to) then alarm on and immobiliser again insurance always up to date

Wow, you sound as paranoid as me.  I have 2 chains, one of them long to secure to something. I have a ground anchor coming and I have the alarm when I get it fitted. Its while out and about I am more paranoid, if you park it in a parking bay then there is nothing to lock it to so you only have the chains etc. Columbo |

Its while out and about I am more paranoid, if you park it in a parking bay then there is nothing to lock it to so you only have the chains etc. Columbo see i don't tend to park in a parking bay,. i will mak a ground anchor out of something (lamp post, metal fencing, bike racks), never try to atach it to something like a piller (unless it has holes to put your chain or lock) as they will just lift bike up and over and away they go,.. but from another point of view if they are going to take your bike they will take it no matter what,.. but they will look for the easiest one to take,. also try pick a place where members of public are going to be walking past alot,.. means there will be less oppertunity for them taking it compared to a quiet spot away from public as they have more time till the next person walks past. in middle of parking bay they can reverse van up chuck bike in,. then deal with chains and locks once away. where as if it is to a lamp post they will need bolt cutters to get it away which require to much effort |

I was told by a few traffic wardens back home they just ignore bikes as long as they arent blocking peoples way, not sure if its the same up here though

Ive got the cyclone v2. Was great till the better half decided to wash the spare fob. Took the batteries out of it and reconnected it last night. Works great again. Easy to fit and has everything a highly priced alarm has including remote start. I bought the talking version

I bought the talking version Don't wire up the remote start, if your bike is nicked the insurance company will use the feature as a get out clause, insurance companies love that feature so beware  |
