Whenever I've kept the bike outdoors, some f*cker had tampered or tried to nick it Sad

I woke up in the middle of the night to find my three week old Thundercat missing Crying or Very sad Luckily they'd only got it 50 yards down the road and I found it just as they were returning with a stolen van to take it away. I promptly fitted a couple of ground anchors, but still had scumbags tamper with it, so I got a steel motorcycle shed and never had ant more trouble, although the same couldn't be said of my winter hack which remained in the yard. Basically, if the bikes out of sight, it's less likely to be stolen.

Mine lives in the garden...

spikes ontop of the gate, which is bolted. Bike has a disc lock and is kept under a cover.

Got an Almax Immobiliser III on its way, then it'll also be chained to the stone wall in the garden.

Can't nick it if they don't know it's there!

The DR's at home with me under a lean-to next to the garage, Will be getting moved into the garage around next week as its been so cold its refused to start.

GSXR, Dragster and Typhoon are all inside, Though i'm not using them so no need to be outside.

At my old bit the dragster used to be in the dining room, The typhoon, neo's and runner were outside locked up under covers at the different stages i owned them. I eventually got a little shed and kept them 2 at a time in there.

In the back garden, ground ankored to the house with a chain with a disc lock padlock. Front has 2 disc locks (one for each).

If someone wants it enough, they will take it. Not gonna make it easy for them though!

In the back garden chained, anchored, CCTV'd and boobytrapped.

Don't really care if they nick it, it's only a cheap hack I bought so I can teach myself how to fix bikes.

Talking to my mum who works in insurance.

Up here (W.Yorks), everyone I know has a garage.

Bu my mother says when she talks to people down south, hardly anyone has a garage, unless they are well off.

Personally I would never consider a house without a garage.

I even knocked the old garage down and made it bigger.

But not wide enough!! Why I made it 26' Long. But kept the width at 9' i'll never know. Its too tight to work on a car on axels inside the garage.

The 1800, Trike and the wifes 500 live in the garage. The cars live outside along with my FJ (cause I can't fit it in the garage Crying or Very sad )

Both my Goldwings are alarmed and immobilised and my crappy Ford Mondeo is parked so close to the garage doors they can't be opened.

Short of an electric fence I can't think of anything else except maybe Nb's starving pooches!

My 125 lives down the side of my house behind a locked gate. The NC30 lives in the nursing warmth of the garage. Cool
