Need help
-
@vtrn_raptor drill it out and replace it there is a thread on here about it I think
-
Okay I'll give it a go as don't really want a bike with no steering lock lol as where I live the bike theft rate is ridiculous
-
@vtrn_raptor that's why my bikes in the kitchen
-
I have 2 in my kitchen and a cr500 in the bedroom
-
hahaha @andrewj1680 that's just how its meant to be I remember seeing bikes get built and kept in the house from as young as I can remember seen car be built in a house too but not ours
-
@andrewj1680 if I owned a cr 500 I'd have it in bed with me making sure it's warm lol but serous question those things can't be light how do you get it up the stairs I couldn't imaging getting a pitbike up then never mind a beast

I wouldn't worry about a steering lock too much. Theives break them with little effort. In my opinion the best cheap theif deterrent is an alarmed disk lock. Nice and small to take around with you, but packing a loud enough siren to wake yourself / the neighbors up.

Thinking about one of those trackers for my TDR next year when it's on the road for this very reason.
Already had scumbags hanging around back of work when bike arrived from eBay. God bless those chavs!
-
@nottsbiker yes thinking of a tracker like just can't decide which one

The best and most cost effective defense against thieves with regards to portable bike locks is a quality disc lock with a built in alarm, such as the Xena or Oxford brands. Plus a throttle/brake lock, such as the Croc-Lock. Both are small, light and easily tucked away somewhere like a back-pack, or a jacket pocket. And also they are far more portable than lugging around a big heavy chain. Plus they lock the wheels and stop the bike from being moved, with the exception of it being lifted away with a lorry crane of course!!!
