Hi

I live in a bit of a bad neighbourood. I park my bike outside and id like to fit an alarm.

 

Ive never seen bike alarms for sale in chiang mai. But i have seen a few bikes that seemed to have after market alarms fitted.

 

Where can i get such an alarm fitted and what is the cost?

 

Thanks

Just a thought - but if you live in a dodgy area and the alarm goes off - what will you do? Rush out and possibly rin into a group of bike thieves?

How about getting a really good lock and heavy chain and lock it to something solid?

From my experience bike alarms just give you a sleepless night and a flat battery.

Use both.

Have you considered a disc brake lock / alarm? Like this Xena - http://www.pandarider.com/XENA/product-disclockAlarm-showall.html

 

Runs on own battery, sets off on motion, extremely loud..

Most thieves will move on to the next bike (possibly yours) when the alarm goes off! Its usually not worth the trouble.

yes of course. i dont expect bike thieves to greet you next to the bike after alarm goes off.

use a xena lock and some chain.

I had a zena lock and had a lot of false alarms with it. Took the battery out. Maybe they are better now.

I dont want a disc lock. Its a pain to keep taking it on and off. I was thinking more about like a remote control alarm or one that works with a key

The new scooters (like the pcx) have alarms, maybe you could retro fit one to the crf?

Also, I am sure ebay has a lot of options for you, alarms that are simple to fit and movement activated. That would put all but the most desperate thieves off and I am sure crfs are not high on their lists.
