Security on the street, on a small bike

[killa]

As the title suggests. Need ideas for securing a GP100 whilst parked up outside the house, on the street.
It’s a busy street, the parking spot can be directly outside the front door. Scum density is low to medium level.

I kept my XR250 (which is kickstart with no ignition key or steering lock, might as well have "nick me" in a neon sign above it) out on the street in south-east London for many months, up onto the kerb leant against a lamppost then chained to it with as many chains as I could find, plus a disc lock. If the local chavs figured out they could have the chains off with bolt cutters, they'd have still needed a grinder to get rid of the disc lock, which I'd hopefully hear running as it was right outside my flat.

Never got nicked, nobody even tried, which was pretty amazing considering the area... The council didn't complain about it being on the kerb/post either.

6v electrics will hamper alarm / imobiliser options.
Does it have a disc brake or is it drum?
Alarmed disc-clock got to be a good start if you can fit one round the disc. (If alarm only reminds you you have forgotten to take it off! )
Then down to old fasioned chastity locks!
Big Chains
BIG CHAINS

Thanks for the input guys. I'm thinking big dirty chain kept at the house, maybe something a little more reasonable to carry. Something like that.

I use a cable lock at home for overnight security. It's a MasterLock thick cable, like that of a bicycle lock, though it's around 8feet long. It's easy to carry around when needed and it long enough to lock it around anything. The only real weight is the padlock.

a cable lock is harder to cut then a chain, siren's only work if somebody give's a damm ...my bike looks like a mongral of parts ..so I never worry about it being stolen..is it realy that bad ..??

Chain and disc lock with integral alarm.

As DB mentioned, it's a good idea to shove a cheap cover over it - the shiny bits attract scrotes like magpies.
