Fingers crossed bike test passed before March next year.
Looking at the SV650, but there is no where to pass the a heavy duty chain through the frame.
So thinking x3 ground anchors.
chains through the wheels front a rear to anchors 1 and 3, and long wheel to wheel, as tight as I dare and attached via another chain ground anchor 2
All done with as much slack as possible removed.

Have a look at pragmasis anti pinch pins, see if they would work with your frame/chain.
I used one on one of my bikes that had a single sided swingarm.

What about two ground anchors with a d lock attaching them - hiplock do one now which reaches up to meet the lock and is rated highly for angle grinder attacks.
For something like an SV650 it’s going to be stolen to rag around or for parts as opposed to something more exotic. I’d say the above would provide enough of a deterrent to keep the normal balaclava’s types away whilst also not being overly onerous each time you park it up

You don't mention where you can park your motorcycle. A shed or garage would be idea. Less visible the better.
You can also use something like a Litelok through said chain and onto something such as suspension etc. a little flexible and easy to secure to the bike without reducing the security

Rear yard, well out of site, will be sitting on hard concert, landlord will allow ground anchors, but not a shed.You can also use something like a Litelok through said chain and onto something such as suspension etc. a little flexible and easy to secure to the bike without reducing the security

If you're going to use chains as the primary means of security, they need to be 19mm at a minimum as they can be cut with an angle grinder in less than a minute.
Been googling, it looks like grinder proof ground anchors combined with grinder proof D locks is the new meta.Agreed, but they're angle grinder resistant locks rather than proof. They can be cut but it will take multiple discs, batteries and a lot of time.
One angle grinder resistant D lock on each wheel with one of them going through a ground anchor. Have a look at the products Litelok and Hiplok sell.

If you're on about multiple ground anchors, chains and D-locks you'll soon get fed up and leave them off one night, at which point It'll go missing. Just because its a pain in the sack to carry around an arsenal of Keys, locks and chains etc.
The best form of security is one thats easy to use. If you have a nice big pad available with a dedicated area you'd be better off with just one device thats utterly bomb proof.
If I was in your boots i'd be looking at an anchor/stand like the Tufluck.
It IS expensive, but 3 chains, 2 D locks and 2 anchors will all add up. I also believe that it can be moved at a later date as the bolts can be accessible later.
If every time you want to use your bike you have to spend 20mins locking and unlocking it then it just becomes a real chore.
