    Lightbulb Security trackers YES or NO?

    Do you share what you think is a good thing or just a waste of money? The internet is full of a variety of safety trackers like https://monimoto.com/uk/shop/ I can't decide whether to invest or not. Please share your experience of securing your motorcycle.😅

    I had heard that stealing motorcycles was BIG business in the UK. Personally, I'd save my money & cable/padlock my tires to they'd have to lift it to steal it.......

    Two thoughts, yes the tracker is good if thought 1, your law enforcement is willing to go get your Spyder, thought 2, you have a Rambo attitude, training and capability to go get your Spyder back yourself.

    As for cables, chains, locks, etc. A flatbed truck with a winch wins every time.

    Consider too, is there value in a stolen Spyder? Doubtful it is anywhere near that of a sportbike.

    Depends on where you live and ride. Is it usually in sight ? How long is it left for, garaged ? Do you lock it ?
    For me, no.

    Right, and the system he linked to won't work in the good ol' US of A. It uses old cell phone network technology our carriers have, or will, dump.
