Hi all

What’s parking like around Bond Street?

I’m using a Honda CB125F 2018. Should I stick with this or buy a different bike?

I can only find a few road bays with nothing to chain a bike to. The price of a annual train ticket is ridiculous so I want to commute again. Is it relatively safe?

I’m looking to spend good money on security. From what I’ve read on here, it’s Alma’s or Pragmasis. I’ve also got to think of carrying it.

So I need:https://omegle.onl/ vshare


Practical chain, pragmasis 13mm? What length?

Squire padlock? Which one to work with it?

Disc lock but one that will actually fit on my bike. My 2 I have don’t fit
Tail pack to carry both the chain and disc lock which will hold up the weight and also fit to the bike well. Kreiga? Would be good to keep a set of waterproofs in. If it can be attached the bike so it doesn’t clip off that will be helpful.

Any advice would be great please!

Can't give location specific info as other than being on a construction site at Bond Street station, I don't know the area.

However, you're implying there's nothing to chain the bike to in the places you've identified but you're talking about chains . . . I'm assuming therefore you're suggesting chaining the bike to itself? On a 125 the risk is always it can be easily lifted into a van even with the chain on as they don't weigh much. You really need to be able to chain it to something immovable.

Carrying, yes Kriega tailpacks are the way to carry heavier stuff, I've carried 14mm chains in mine. A 14mm chain with nothing else just about fits in the 5 litre one. If you are including other stuff you'll probably want the US-20. Anything that goes in there needs to withstand sufficient compression to keep a heavy tailpack in place though, so no good for carrying boxes of eggs or loaves of bread.

All bikes seem to get targeted in London unfortunately.
