Ever tried to ride off with your disc lock still on?


Yes - and failed

Sounds like a great idea if you've got standard pegs

I find a luminous wire coil from the lock to the grips works well enough.

It cost me £200 the last time I made that mistake, and as sods law goes, it was in the middle of a packed Lakeside carpark with the wife on the back...:weeping

Done it twice. The second time it destroyed my front caliper and I was in darkest Saint Emillion at the time .
And guess what they don't make it for Triumphs
Fuggin good idea though. Now why didn't I think of that?

I never rode with one on.

I was freewheeling the bike thinking 'why won't it move'. Gave it a quick shove and CRACK! The front nudguard broke. Bugger!!
