Motorcycle alarms

[Az]

Looking for a motorcycle alarm, so far in mind i have the Cyclone V2 (this: https://www.motorbikealarm.co.uk/shop/cyclone-v2-talking-motorbike-alarm-and-immobiliser-system/)

Any recommendations for motorcycle alarms £40 or less?

And has anyone owned a Cyclone alarm, they seem pretty cheap considering how good they say they are.

Thanks in advance, Az

For the price the Cyclone V2 is good, I fitted mine nearly a couple of years ago, never had a problem, all features can be wired in on the CBF too.

^ this. I've had one for a couple of years and been very happy. I love the remote start, which I can do from my front room when it's wet or cold. Don't bother with the talking one though, everyone I know, or have read about, turns it off pretty quickly.

EDIT: IIRC You need to ring the seller before fitting to get the right colours, and you can only do this during office hours.

They're easy to bypass but they're loud.

Get the seat off my bike and you can disable the cyclone in ~2 seconds. But try and get the seat off and you get an ear piercing siren blaring at you.

I currently have one and it handles everything on my bike. The guy who tried to steal my bike broke the ignition, so I've simply removed it and installed the Cyclone instead. Now my bike can only be started through the Cyclone. But if the Cyclone ever fails... the XJ600 is exceedingly easy to hotwire anyway.

Always used cyclones on past 3 bikes never had any issues. Just watch for battery drain in winter particularly if you arent riding much. But id think that applies to most alarms and you can use a trickle charger to get around that if the bikes indoors/garaged
