broncbob Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 The best thing to do is make the doors the bike will fit out of as secure as you can. On my shop I have two overhead doors that my quads will go out of and that's it. The windows are two small, as well as the two steel man doors. I have the door tracks on the over heads drilled and they have a pair of master locks in them. I don't keep bolt cutters in the shop, and good luck finding the saws all blades. That's about all I can do, be sides put bars on the windows. Epoxy anchors require a very clean hole, The hole all so has to be of a certain depth and they have to be installed the right way, or they will fail. The instructions that Hilti includes must be followed to the letter. The biggest thing is slowing them down, most thieves are smash and grab. They don't want to get bogged down having to cut shit and make a bunch of noise in the midst of the heist. Quote
4strokekilla1987 Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 i keep my bike in my garage and only 4 people know its there my brother, my mother, my wife and my builder and it has been like that for over a year now, when i sell something on craigslist i meet the people atleast 10miles from where i live, i also keep both of the deadlocks on my garage closed with master locks i have 6 chains with master locks going every which way. i have 1 lock on my brake disk and another through my sproket i also keep my house on surveillance all day while im at work, so i keep a watchfull eye and at night i got my trusty sig p220 45acp and a mean chiguagua that barks at a the smallest noise Quote

broncbob Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 I live in a good hood, just better safe than sorry. If my shop got cleaned out it would be VERY expensive to replace. I tend to keep a rig between the shop door and the road when I have it open as well. I ride in the two acres behind the shop, so people know that I have some stuff. Quote

BSHEE400 Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 my banshee is kept in a big shed with a lot of expensive equipment, dirt bikes and what not. the door is never locked but it has three bad ass doberman to keep it compeny Quote
Ieat4strokes Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 if someone wants it they will get it. i suggest making it very hard for them to get it. make it so that whatever they do will cause a lot of noise to get it out. use a couple chains, front and back with two locking points on each. wrap the chains through the frame rails a few times. . lock up the rear disk. Im with loco on this, make em tote it if they want to get it that bad. Wrap some chains through front wheels around a arms and through back wheels so that it will not roll.... I have mine in one of them portable sheds but Masterlock has a nice circular lock system thats basically impenatrable, nothing for the would be theif to cut and i put one on the front door. Costs about 40 bucks but well worth it imo. Quote

Costs about 40 bucks but well worth it imo. when the 3 banshee got stolen from my dads house they were right in front of his back door which keep in mind its a french door they took them and threw them over his 6 foot gate. thats why just in chains and locks i have spent $200 buck and then the cameras were another $500 Quote
-Herbie- Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 Get insurance, i pay about $12 a month for full coverage on my YFZ and that covers it even if I wreck it. And they cover mods as long as I keep receipts. Quote
bigborebanshee Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 How ever you decide to secure it,make sure it takes them an ample amount of time to steal it and require them to make a lot of noise. Quote
