I usually try to park on the walkway in front of the cars by the bar itself. That way the S O Bs have to drag the sum bitch off the sidewalk around the cars!!! Much harder to steal than pulling up next to it in a truck and a couple big guys throw it in the back, that can happen in 30 seconds, locked up, alarm on ,their gone down the street-seen it happen at a large rally once.Man I know the sick feeling in your belly when you see your baby gone-so sorry man!

Are there options other than LoJack available for tracking?  :-\ spyder
Spyd,
As the one previous post shows, there are a few GPS based tracking devices out there.  Unfortunately, they only work as long as the bike is outdoors to receive the GPS signal to give off it's location, or in a single story wood type structure, like a garage.  The GPS signal from the satellite is too week to penetrate metal buildings, or more than a one story wooden structure.  LoJack is probably the best because it uses VHF radio frequency triangulation and does not rely on GPS.

I think it's around $900 and change, installed.  No other costs, annual fees, involved.
