Liking the idea but too many other dogs walked past my spot...caught one pishing on my front wheel the other day! They'd all be eaten up

Again, nice idea...very nice idea...however, a financially stupid one

I don't need to be attracted to my bike...and bees/dogs/hungry tourists can pi$$ off an' all! Tis bad enough it's a yellow bike, the flying insects love it. Especially as it sits next to some pretty flowerboxes

Ye but I don't dare attempt to transport one on the bike, can you imagine how angry he would be if I came off and broked it?

Just take a massive dump on the seat before leaving the bike.

Or I could do some police aware stickers? "EVIDENCE: THIS VEHICLE IS NOT TO BE TAMPERED WITH, DOING SO WILL BE CONSIDERED AS PERVERTING THE COURSE OF JUSTICE AND WILL RESULT IN A CUSTODIAL SENTENCE"

Or build ikea furniture round it - that'll confuse 'em.

Maybe some of those ropes you get at the cinemas to keep the queues in line, bit like a VIP area but with a silly sv650 inside it..

Could you fit an extra loud alarm with remote panic button, anytime someone goes near it just set it off.

Failing that, stop parking outside Leeds Bradford airport.

I should perhaps mention that the bike is parked on a bit of slippery paving just wider than the bike on a steep slope, next to a cobbled street that is frequently accessed by turning cars. No room for cordoning off, building of furniture. A cover is an idea I guess.

Park it upside down ... simples!

Keeps your seat dry too.

He layed one in front of Chris t'other day......stink turned him right off going in the shed

Whilst getting your seat lowered, get a remote controlled one of these fitted at the same time.
