I was fitting the back wheel back in bike, and was giving the spindle some 'encouragement' to gerrinthereyerbastid. Only after the 3rd tap did i get a little chirrup of complaint from the motion sensor. Dropped it off the centrestand, nada! Put the sidestand down and then it got all exciteable.
So it seems that a thief could remove my wheels, and rock it off the centrestand and possibly wheel it off without the alarm going off.
Sys3 btw

Mine is the Datatool sys 3 and it chirps when you tap it, bit too sensitive for my liking. Even when you dont think the bike has moved when putting a cover over it, it still likes to remind you the alarm is set.............

Fizzy, dont you find it a pain in the posterior especially when filling fuel etc though..........i am still getting used to it though, only had the bike 3 weeks, 2nd bike with an alarm in 20 odd yrs, not entirely sure i like alarms on bikes!

My Fz1 alarm is really great at flatting the battery if I leave the bike standing for a few weeks.... :wall

I built my own. 2 point immobiliser and a foccing loud siren. Standy current is pretty much zero untill it detects movement, vibration or current draw..... but the chirp sensitivity is set independently from the alarm going into monitor state.
Not insurance approved obviously. But their are no internet work arounds for it us the wiring is bespoke.
At the end of the day the alarm will not stop it getting stolen but with my siren gives me a chance to get my hands on the $#!@@@***/# gits before they get the chance to make off with it :evil

same as nsr, mines very sensitive and thats the way i like it!
Helps remind the local scrotes!
No one would nick a red one. Not even a scrote.

press and hold the little round button whilst the ignition is on, it goes into service mode. fill up, re-arm the alarm, pay for fuel, disarm, ride off.

Exup's alarm is so sensitive, it would pick up the bike next to it being nicked! :lol
Wouldn't be a London Foccers rideout without Exup setting his alarm off at least 3 times! :rollin :rollin
