I think the general opinion is that you will spend more money on the alarm than you will every save in insurance premiums.

I'd just buy an alarmed disc lock instead of fitting an alarm. Mine's got got a Thatcham approved Datatool alarm fitted but it doesn't make the insurance much cheaper tbh.

Don't insurance demand a certificate showing it's been installed by a professional so you have to pay the full monty?Moral being don't bother and spend the money on petrol and riding it.

I think the immobiliser is more important than the alarm itself. Maybe something like this if you find somewhere local. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=170411324275

I got mine as part of the deal when I got my new SV a couple of years back.
