Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Any 750 owners using a disc lock?

2012-05-08 Thread Kurt Nolte
I'm not really concerned with deterring a determined thief, that's what
insurance is for, but I want to deter the opportunists from even messing
with the bike. An easily spotted disc lock should do the trick, with the
added bonus of being hard for me to forget too. :D

I seem to recall a statistic that most thefts are crimes of opportunity,
not planning and forethought.

Anyone know how big the holes in the front disc are? Need to measure them
for pin diameter. I can get to it this afternoon, but if someone else is
already using a lock, less work for me. :D

Subject: [Nighthawk Lovers] Any 750 owners using a disc lock?

 

Just as the title says. I'm interested in picking up a disc lock at some
point during the summer; in the fall I go back to working a couple nights,
and our area isn't the best for theft. While I've been lucky so far, and I
park right in view of a security camera, I like doubling up my caution with
my ride. 

 

Looking for proper size, recommendations for models or brands... I /don't/
want one with an alarm, what a hassle and in this day and age vehicle alarms
are ignored almost as often as they garner attention. 

 

Thanks for anything you folks can muster up!
