    Some old timer Harley Riders told me about bike covers 1) Get one without a bike brand name on it. That way they have no idea what is under the cover. 2) Make the cover dirty and unattractive with some black over-sprayed paint and duct tape on it. Thieves will think it a crap bike because you have not invested in a good new cover. 3) Get a cover a bit bigger than you need. Then the rims and tires are covered so then again they have no idea what is under the cover. Plus they cannot figure out what type of bike is under the cover by the profile.
    As they said, people do not covet what they cannot see.

      Thought about that a couple of times when i saw covered bikes.
      When i who knows a lot about bikes to the point that i never have to ask anyone "what bike is this?" I can tell you 90% of the time what bike hides under the cover just by seeing a part of the bike like the wheels (size, width, etc), the final drive (chain, belt, shaft), brakes, the swingarm or the lower part of the forks and the axle mount. Plus you can always tell what type of bike it is by the overall shape. At least i can tell 100% if that bike is worth enough to steal it.
      So make sure to cover that up good

    1. Cover (and small chain)
    2. Massive (19mm) chain to metal fence and Squire lock
    3. Front wheel disc lock
    4. Rear wheel disc lock
    5. Scorpio Alarm (to he fitted).
    It just takes a few minutes at the start and of the day to do the 'routine'.
    When I'm out and about I just use a single disc lock (and alarm).

    • @TheLondonCyclist
      @TheLondonCyclist 5 років тому +11

      1. Take cover off along with small chain
      2. Cut the fence, not the chain
      3. Cut the disk the lock is attached to
      4. Cut the disk the lock is attached to, again
      5. No one cares about alarms
      Your best bet is to have a tracker on it and pay around £250 a year for a company to live track it and monitor.

      I live in Japan and motorcycle theft is pretty common here. A friend in the neighborhood just got his stolen recently and you can hear plenty of stories of motorcycle theft.
      Theft insurance,alarms,GPS, multiple locks,cover,rental containers with 24h surveillance... The drill is the same here.
      I own two bikes and live in a nice residential area and I caught people trying to "check" my bikes before.
      If you have a high end bike, professional thieves will come for it.
      If you have a scooter,you have to worry about hooligans.
      Classic bike,watch out for bike gangs.
      It's a shame though. This country is indeed safer than others on other aspects...

    I live in London so the bare minimum for me is huge chain, ground anchor, tracker and CCTV. Fortunately the place I park at work supplies ground anchors, CCTV and regular security patrols. Oh and the cover is a good idea but an old tatty one is better than a shiny new one. Even then someone attacked my pride and joy with a hammer after failing to get through my chain with their angle grinder. I had a 125 stolen because I didn't use a big enough chain, now I take no chances.

Riding on the GSXr hurts her butt on longer rides as it has a larger and softer seat.

It doesn't always deter all bike thieves either, you have to show some extreme violence towards them to really scare them off. The second time a guy (it was the same guy as the first and third times) tried to steal my bike he managed to run away, however he was missing teeth (what did he expect when he tried to steal a bike with the 16 stone owner wearing body armour stood next to it), but he tried again, unfortunately for him I was cutting a zip tie off of my bike, and he only ran away with my knife (I swear I didn't stab him, he must have lodged the knife in his own shoulder after he ran away, honest officer). Apparently UK legal carry knives can be dangerous to thieves (who knew).

    Hey man I love your channel! I have one critic though: whenever you review gear, sometimes you just dismiss the safety aspects of it. And for me, safety is the most important factor. IE: I was watching a video of you reviewing a pair of gloves, that were only leather, almost useless if you fall at a decent speed.
    I don't know if others agree, but it would be great if in the following videos you clearly commented on the safety level of each gear.
    I'm a new biker so I'm learning a lot from your videos. Thanks!
