Need 2 buy an alarm

RE: Need 2 buy an alarm
I have the Scorpio, and i must admit it comes pretty handy. Installation is very easy, no wires cutting involved. It really gives me a peace of mind now. However must i add that, all alarm does absorb a lot of power from the battery so make sure that u ride your baby once in a while. I myself make sure that at least i warm it up 5 minutes every 2 days if i dont plan on riding.

RE: Need 2 buy an alarm
How much is lo-jack? I live in Bedford TX and I'm worried about the bike being stolen as well (if I get one.) My auto insurance is high here because of theft, the guy from esurance said they steal cars quite a bit and take them to mexico and the insurance companies will never recover it...What if you lock it to the poles of parking lots or structures, do the just cut it? I never had to worry about it or didn't worry about it in Michigan...[]

I have a brand new Gorilla alarm for sale. The basic version (ie, non-paging one)...it is BRAND NEW..I bought it for like $100 plus s/h... but ended up not installing it so it has been sitting on my desk (I park my bike in the living room now, so I figure if they crawl in here, they'll see my XD45 before they see the alarm)...I can let it go for $70 shipped if you're interested. PM me.
PS. For sale ads is up in for sale section too..hehe..

Is lo-jack better than an alarm? I looked it up and rough guesstimate is 500+install. I imagine you could do both right as lo-jack is more of a recovery tool?

I had my bike stolen and it was recover in 2hrs. And lo-jack has it if they dont recover your bike in 24hrs they pay towards the purchase of a new one. BUt on top pf that you would still want an alarm although you get the lo-jack. So when lil johnny comes trying to steal your bike you can great him and wish him a farewell

Helping pay for a new bike would be worth it by itself. Insurance sucks and the second you have to make a claim they screw you over. My wife hit a pot hole in michigan with our car blowing out 3 rims, cracking the bumper and cracking the wheel well cover. They paid out 1200 bucks and now my insurance is about 70 bucks a month more because of it. First claim I have ever had in my life and no tickets/accidents on either of our records. I was with state farm since 2005. I hate insurance it's such a scam![:@] BTW the claim stays on us for 3 years meaning 36months x 70 a month=2520 which means not only do they make your payment initially higher because they know michigan roads suck they rape you the second you have to make a claim. So in the end they rape me on my insurance, rape me after I make a claim because I'm going to pay that 1200 bucks back + another 1320. Screw insurance, lo-jack is a need to keep from further getting ripped off!
lo-jack FTW!
