I hate that option and have done the same. Thieves snap the locks easy anyway so they aren't worth a damn IMHO. I use a disc lock and a portable little alarm secreted under my tank via magnets I stuck to it and use it when I park up for shopping etc.

Motorcycle portable alarm



As the Alarm doesn't have an on-off switch I have a little bit of card under the batteries and move that up to block one of the batteries contacting to save the battery life.
