Posted: 10:20 - 17 Feb 2018 Post subject: Carrying your disc lock on your motorcycle. |
|
|
Hi people, I have just recently bought a chain, an FD-moto disc lock and anchor, got an absolute bargain for all 3. Just wondering the easiest way to carry your disc lock with you? I don't want to keep it in my pocket...obviously. When the lock is clicked in the alarm automatically sets on it, so i can't click it on to somewhere on the bike as someone will think I've stolen it And it's 3 miniture screws to unscrew to take the battery out so it will be a nusiance to keep having to do that. I do have a top box but i don't like to carry it around with me all the time. |

Yes, that would be far too convenient and solve all your problems.
If you don't want to spoil the look of your bike for the benefit of your adoring fans, you could sling it in a small bag hung off of your bars, in front of your headstock.
I mean, depending on what bike it is, but it's more fun if we have to guess. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

I dunno, I have some sympathy there... personally I have an instantly snap-on/off Givi box, which I do only use when I specifically need it, which does not include day ride-outs from home (my normal bike use). I have no reason to need it fitted all the time, and several reasons not to - eg, if I'm parked up, someone might break in to it (it can't be left 'unlocked' and empty); if I had an off it would probably mean another £100 to find; if it's windy it doesn't help the bike's stability; it would suffer more general wear-and-tear than when sitting on the garage shelf, etc. At my age, looking 'uncool' really doesn't feature
But then again, my disk lock fits neatly under my seat, and I'm not sure why the OP's doesn't. ____________________ KC100->CB100N->CB250RS--------->DL650AL2->R1200RS->R1250RS |

Something like this would be perfect. I have a YBR 125 so don't have a separate pillion seat unfortunately so taking the whole seat off everytime would be quite inconvenient. Does it just clip around the seat or can it clip around the shelf where the top box sits? |

? You unclip the bag leaving the straps in place. What I found with a similar bag is that if you put too much stuff in the bag shifts a bit and presses into your back (which's annoying). |
