what security?

just wondering, while looking for insurance im confronted with a huge list of security products so which ones get the most money off insurance without breaking the bank?

anything thats thatcham gold tested id of thought insurance companies get the horn for alarm's too.

Depends, I checked last renewal as I'd got annoyed with alarm and thrown it at a passing chav. A £300 alarm system would have knocked a grand total of £17 off my premium...

which is why ive never bothered

[yorkie_chris]

Indeed. Alarms and immobilisers are only good for leaving you stranded somewhere either rough or freezing.

i just use a alarmed disc lock best of both worlds and a chain locked to something large and metal.

Yup and yup.

Best bike security in the world is being sat somewhere close with a crossbow.

I don't condone first suggestion

1: put bike in house, but if not.....
2: dogs, can hear any little tealeaf trying to nick off with your beloved, but if your out and a serious suggestion
3: OnGuard disc lock, thatcham approved(were when I bought one) fuggin heavy, rather large and noticeable and unpickable and they can't get croppers in em. £30, a lot more than a normal disc lock, worth every penny, and they are so big you don't forget to take em off
4: meta alarm

thing is like YC said it only knocks pence off your premium, and they are only deterant measures.

I must be the only one that sees a use for my alarm lol!

I always put no security, even if I have chains and alarm etc as it makes little difference to the premium and doesn't give them a loop hole to get out of paying up if it's stolen " can you proove the bike alarm was on, megahugeunbreakable chain was around the bike etc " - if you have security, then that's an extra piece of mind for you.

Just my opinion
