I used to have a proximity style alarm on one of my old bikes...HATED IT! All it ever did for me was get me to run out of resturants to see the grinning faces of my "buddies". By the time they know you have proximity,they've got the truck backed up and four guys are ready to throw your bike in the back! Ofcourse,nobody is "throwing" your bike anywhere,I was refering to sport bikes.

On another note,a buddy of mine keeps a spare phone on his bike so they can track it with gps if it's stolen. It costs him $10 a month. If I ever get serious,I'll probably get LoJack.

Anyone use a disc lock with the alarm feature? I'm wondering if they are worth a crap.

The Gorilla sounds like a good option. Where did you pick it up?

I looked at disc locks,I think I'm too lazy to put that on everytime I park my bike. Plus,you have to carry it with you so I'd forget it in another jacket all the time. My biggest fear is that I'll try to drive off with it on but the alarm feature will fix that,I think. Besides,they cost about $100 so I went with the alarm.

I got my alarm from the dealership but you can get the top of the line G unit on EBay for $150.

not to change this into the NRA thread or anything but why a .45? I always felt that "most" were too inaccurate so I stick with .40,10 mm or .357. I realize you lose some stopping power but you have to hit it to stop it,right?
