Anti-theft devices for your motorcycle

Unfortunately, motorcycle theft is a reality. Do you want to equip yourself to safeguard your two-wheeler? This is a very good idea and to encourage you to do so, here is a list of the various options currently on the market.

• The U-lock: the best known, the classic large U-lock has the advantage of being easy to store and not too heavy. It can be used to immobilise or secure your motorcycle.
• The chain: it is often heavier and more bulky than the U, but it now offers the same level of resistance as the U, while offering the ease of being flexible.
• The cable: it is lighter and more flexible than the U and the chain, but less resistant.
• Disc lock: with or without alarm, it is small and not too heavy, which makes it easy to transport. Remember to also use the return line to make sure that you unlock it before starting.
