Regarding motorcycle security; I don't believe there is any such thing. If a thief or group of thieves want your bike, they will get it. Thieves operate on timing, so anything that slows them down will help thieves to decide to pass up your bike and steal something else. A thief is a thief. It is how they survive. Here is a suggestion that I've used with some success: If you're unable to secure your bike to something stationary, (ie. Metal post, concrete fence, etc.) lock your front wheel using the standard motorcycle locking mechanism, run a hardened cable or chain with lock through your rear tire and frame so the rear tire won't spin. This is useful for heavier bikes, as three thieves can easily steal any bike that doesn't have it's rear wheel locked by sliding a 2X4 piece of lumber through the front wheel, lifting it off the ground and walking away with the bike, with the front wheel locked, letting the rear wheel roll normally. This is quite easy and takes only seconds to roll away your bike to a location where they can work in secret on the front lock.
Hope this helps!
