I seem to recall the helmet straps were cut . But the advice is still sound ,just don't leave it around . Or at least put it out of sight so that criminals won't be tempted . |
Nah, they had it through the bar.

Yeah , you're right .
But cutting helmet straps is a common way to steal them . Also I stopped using the helmet lock on my bike years ago after seeing some poor sod's helmet used as a urinal outside the pub one night . I intend using a sidecar this year and with regard to security ;my passenger will be my German Shepherd . She's very territorial .I may have to carry a shovel to bury the bodies . :funmeteryes: |

Security is a complete myth as you say. 2mm aluminium, cheap hinges and a pathetic clasp lock won't deter anyone but the laziest opportunist. I reckon it would take longer to undo the buckles of my army canvas bags than it takes to break the lock off a TT box. If people have anything in the 3rd world, it's ingenuity ! Its very simple... Take you valuables with you in a tank bag. Who wants to steal your underpants and old tshirts ?? A tent isn't much used to street kid either. |

Hi Peer you said it all .... My tankbags are custom sewed by a friend, she is pro sewer and I told her to use truck tarp and the strongest line she can handle with her sewingmachine If you want to buy something, consider the Ortlieb cycle bags and similar .... but you won`t find something cheap, well maybe used at ebay ... Just try to find a sewer who can handle the truck tarp and have a look at the pics some pages before .... Greets and good luck searching Thomas |
