Default Lock it up

LOCK it up

This is not a mod to the bike but a little security when you are gone.
first you will need a paddlelock that will fit through the holes in your rear brake disk .
A piece of heavy weedeater cord and two swedges that fit the cord.
String the cord through one of the swedges and make a loop that will fit on the paddlelock and squeeze the swedge tight with plyers. put the lock with the loop on the rear brake disk .






Turn the handlebars to the left and lock them in place. Now run the cord as stright as possible to the right handgrip (throttle) and make another loop on this end big enough that it will slide over the grip when the lock is off but not when it is locked to you rear disk, squeeze the swedge tight, and you are done.
The cord is NOT for security but only so you will not forget to remove the lock when you want to drive away.





This device is like all security devices it is ment to make a thief go to an easer target and leave your stuff alone.







you can even see the cord from 20 feet away.


drive safe, your friend,
