    The "Oxford Boss" alarm disk lock shown at 1:43 doesn't rust up too bad. I had a wrecked bike parked outside for almost 9 years with one of those around the front disk, still unlocked just fine when I took it off last week, a small amount of corrosion internally made the battery carrier slightly stiff to remove but mainly it's just lost the stickers off the outside and faded slightly in the sunlight.

    Great video man, i would suggest lookg at fortnine's video on it, it was excellent. He came to the conclusion that a heavy chain was the most effective, as the individual would literally have to sit outside with a blade saw cutting away at it for a long time to get anywhere with the bike. Sparks flying and everything.
    Good to see you back homie, btw, got that cbr 1000 your buddy had in an old video after seeing it on your channel. I got the 600 because of you too. And got a vfr 800 for my dad after seeing your channel, it is dope, it is a 25th anniversary edition with the tricolor scheme

    I was told by my bike dealer to never put the steering lock on. Thieves will bust it in seconds and likely write off your steering column, costing you hundreds to fix when you find your bike dumped in a ditch. They say it happened so many times from their forecourt, and one mechanic said it happened outside his house, during the day while he was in.

    • @HeroRR
      @HeroRR  3 роки тому +2

      Not sure. But my insurance company doesn't value mods on my bikes, so if they got stolen i'd lose out on the mods I did, also they're sentimental to me so I would rather just prevent it if I could.

    • @Dave-bu6bc
      @Dave-bu6bc 2 роки тому +1

      Here in the UK, in a bike theft hotspot, my insurance came down almost £700 by having a £450 professionally fitted tracker. A £200 lock and chain further reduced the insurance by £280. Those discounts will apply every year as well, but I'll only need to pay the annual £144 tracker monitoring fee.
      Why pay more than necessary? Spend wise, don't spend twice.

  • @Dave-bu6bc

    The problem with most locks is that it takes about the same time to pick them as it takes to unlock with a key. Lock manufacturers need to figure at a better way to lock their locks. I had a bike stolen once. They picked it up and put it on a trolley. No lock picking needed. Most modern thieves have lined their truck/van with anti signal membrane. The moment they lock the door, there are no more GPS signal, Wi-Fi or cell service. Same goes for bicycles. It's sad, but if someone knows you have an expensive bike and want it, it's gone. 😢 Your absolute best theft protection is to anchor the bike. If you have an expensive bike, you should get a anchor point (typically a long steel rod buried several feet deep with a U shape over the ground). Get a Massive chain or lock with the highest level of pick resistance and attach the bikes frame, Not wheel to it. That way, thieves need to use heavy tools to break it and will attract a lot of attention. I usted to have a lock with an alarm. That works well along with great pick resistance when used to anchor the bike.

    Get a German Shepherd and make your garage his new home/office and train him the right way.
    Sure it is only really effective from about 1.5 yrs old till about 9 years maybe more depending on his genetic makeup.
    If you don't have a garage or a bike?
    Get a German Shepherd anyway cause they're cool dogs and loyal and your best friend and I don't know a lot of mother fuckers that wanna take chances with a good pedigree German Shepherd , if you're female get a male dog , if you're male get a female and just watch, just watch how they are just going to instinctively protect you without even any training, imagine if you trained him/her . . . . .
    I promise you if catching the scum bag is of any priority to you , he's also going to make quick work of that
    Did I mention training ?
    Lets say he did get caught not hearing the thief {Insanely Rare but can happen} then he or she has the ability to redeem him/herself by find the bike boy, find daddies bike :)

    Lock, chain, cover. Get an alarmed disc lock but don’t cheap out you get what you pay for with motorcycle security, get a bolt cropper proof chain and anchor it to the floor so your bike can’t be lifted up and put in a van, finally get a water proof cover that covers all of the bike preferably get one that hugs the bike tight.

    You forgot a surveillance system built into the bike like the Tesla Sentry-mode, traps like high-voltage capacitor-packs connected to contact points with a relay, or razorblades on servos, that stick out of the seat, sides, and any handles, when the bike is off, razor blades glued under the swingarm, and a silent alarm with a gun on you, at all times, to disfigure or kill any degenerate stupid enough to even touch your bike.
    I guarantee you, if every rider was like me, bike theft would plummet faster then than those pests the police can ever accomplish.

    Toy trailer. Out of sight, out of mind. That plus you can immobilize the trailer and implement further "lock down" efforts within the trailer. Best bet if you are looking to park in a assigned outdoor apartment/condo lot. Slap a "City Manure": logo on the side and barn door and you're good to go.
