https://www.urbanobruni.it/accessori/yamaha/xsr-700/Has anyone installed an alarm? where did you installed it? I had a look under the seat but there is almost no space available. I saw somewhere a tail tidy that freed up some space under the passenger seat area, but can't find it now.
Suggestions welcome.
Thanks.
Many thanks, That's it. Good find!
An alarm and a disc lock is not deterrent to a thief. They simply lift them into(sometimes a soundproofed)van and work on removing them in their own garage. Anytime you have a locked bike with a decent chain and lock, it is a deterent.Most newer bikes have an immobiliser built into the keys/ignition system anyway and essentially the alarm is just adding a noise to it.Half the time its all about deterence. If their is a load of bikes and yours has a chain on it a disk lock and a sprung key imobiliser for example like my little moped work hog (brand new yamaha xmax dont laugh) its enough for them to pick another bike.
If its being stollen to order.....well they will have it
If its chained to something they cant lift and take it......your more likely to be bike jacked on the move these days rather tham having your bike nicked especialy in london etc (slow streets). You get followed by 2 lads on a moped and another guy on a ped and they sandwhich you and drag you off the bike and away they go with your ride.....An alarm and a disc lock is not deterrent to a thief.
