Bike Security
Just a quick question not 100% sure what to do at the minute.
I'm currently keeping my bike in my front garden I have two ground anchors and a chain on each. I also have a disk lock with an alarm built in (alarm is optional) but that alarm is useless in bad weather.
Is there anything I can do to make the bike more secure just to let you know its a ybr125 59 plate.
I'm not sure how fitted alarms work and wouldn't really want that to be draining my battery or something.
This has been prompted by a friends bike down the road nearly being taken earlier today.
Any ideas...

Put an automatic halogen light on the front of the house. If anyone walks near they will trigger it. I wouldn't bother with one of those self-charging solar types, they aren't bright enough. Get a mains one with a 1000 Watt bulb.
It's all about the TT ....
Re: Bike Security
If you have a place were it cannot be seen in the garden , move it to there , also a cover over it will help it stand out less.
Looks like you have done a decent job securing it with anchors etc . While it might not be bike security a small cctv, mounted on the house, might help deter the twats who are thinking of robbing it.

Re: Bike Security
Thanks for the replies even the funny ones, the light and camera aren't a bad idea the cover is already on and its secured with straps. I wasn't that bothered with the CG because I had a hard enough job starting that thing I'd love to see a little chav try, I can imagine it's a lot easier with this haha
