Easier said than done , afterall im only coughing up 11k for my 5th bike and it looks better than any other ive ever owned, so im gonna try and buy like the bets alarm system for it. i think in our area motorcycle theft has been up alot, i live near dallas and ft worth, but ill try not to park it in any place that looks suspicious.. I pray for me and all other motorcycle owners not to have their bikes stolen , SORRY VERM!!!!

be cautious and all....but just carry good insurance. the fact is dirt bags will find a way if they really want it. (says the guy who sets his alarm to go in and pay for gas.)

I think that the best proteccion is to have a robbery insurance, but here in Mexico, the companies doesnt want to insurace motorcycles and if they do, are expensives. For my bike that cost 8,500 usd, my insurance agent only can got a insurance for 7,000 and I will pay 1 thousand at year, with a deductible of 10% in case of an accident and 20% for robbery.

Thats why in Mexico is not common that Motorcycles have insurance.
Anyway, Im going to install a $200 usd Viper alarm.

I have think too, to carry with my Chihuahua dog in the saddle bag to protect the bike when is parked, but I don´t know if this it´s going to work..... (she barks much)
