Any of y'all ever had a bike stolen? Post up and share your story, let us know what happened!
Thank blockhead.
Bought my first ever bike - a new MT09 it was beautiful, one month later outside of my work at a hospital it was taken in the daytime, was chained up and parked to two other older bikes 😔
My Second Indian scout was stolen 2 days ago from across the street from my place. I left it at 6pm. came out at midnight to take it to the garage and it was gone. Now im about to buy the indian chief dark horse and I will need to get the best and most reliable GPS out there to protect a $21k bike. Thank you blockhead for the very helpful video. Besides this Invoxia tracking device, what would be the ones you would recommend me? Please !!!! recommend me a top 3! Thanks again. I just became your new subscriber.
2008 Yamaha r1 stolen on 8/30. I picked it up from impound Monday. It was wrecked 9/10 at around 9:30. Dude is still in the icu.
$555.71 impound fee, $1,800 in damage.
@@JuanAVela-lf9ql Oh no! That's awful to hear. Having your bike stolen is absolutely dreadful.
I keep a gun holster attached to the side of my tank, a big one too. Kinda let’s people know, “who ever was riding this bike, owns a gun, and he has it with him”.
The psychology angle, noice haha
I run a crossbreed holster in appendix. My bike is too small for anything else.
@@An_Enraged_Pig I didn’t say I leave the gun on the bike. Hell I didn’t say I have a gun. Only that I keep a holster visible on the bike to make people think about a gun.
@@killdozer3464 I'm happy for you
@@killdozer3464 I was just about to say before he deleted his comment, that's why I carry on me, not the bike.
40 years old and finally riding. Love this channel. You are helping me so much! That Harley on the giveaway is sick!!
LEO in a major city here. I still recommend LoJack. Many of our patrol cars as well as our helicopters are equipped with LoJack trackers that automatically alert us when we’re close to a stolen vehicle. It gives us make, model, color, tag, and VIN, and updates distance and direction from us in real time. I’ve recovered several stolen cars and bikes over the years by just driving around the city on a slow night.
Also, in my experience, dirt bikes and dual sports are by far stolen the most.
I was told their no longer in business! My Speed Triple came with LoJack. Hmm..
@S K LoJack website says they no longer sell systems for motorcycles 😔
@@SocalMoMoto Hmm…didn’t know that. Damn. They still support existing motorcycle systems though.
My dogs have been the best deterrent for any property theft.
If dog is smart.
They’re good for that for sure! Unless you’re parked somewhere where your dog isn’t, and then the rest of the stuff also works 😁
Some time back i watched a documentary about motorcycle and scooter theft in London. street gangs steal like crazy over there. This tip is comming from a guy from one of the gangs. He says that the best thing you can do is to cover up your motorcycle. If they are not able to see what they are potentially stealing, they will not bother. They do not know if the bike has an alarm, if it is chained etc. If your bike is covered they will take the oncovered one next to it instead..
Good tip for sure!
Was literally just looking for videos on deterring thieves! Glad you uploaded this. I just bought a 2021 low rider s and I’m definitely not trying to get it stolen! Keep up the Great work Block
Grats on the bike! I’ve got a tracker in mine as well 😁
I have an hidden Apple air tag in my motorcycle for tracking 🙌 29 dollars. Great video
Great method unless there’s nobody around with an Apple device. AirTags work via Bluetooth and not a cellular network, thus it isn’t self reliant like a GPS tracker is with a dedicated cellular chip 👍🏼
No haven't had bike stolen but thank you for all the tips. Got a disc brake alarm and 2 chain locks and a cover on mine. 🏋
Great review and recommendation. Will definitely be grabbing one soon!
I was definitely expecting another skit with Bagger Bro stealing your bike and you tracking it down. But this was very informative as well 😂
Lol maybe next time 😂
Just got my bike back from a recovered theft, after it was being repaired for 4 months since the thief damaged the shit out of it. Definitely taking these precautions going forward.
Much needed, thanks for this video. Alot going on lately
Great video Block, was just thinking about this for my bike
I purchased a '20 Harley softail and beside the theft deterrents it came equipped with I purchased a disk lock and full coverage ins.
The last two I fully rely on.
Super dope! Plenty good ideas shared. Thank you!
had my bike stolen from out side my place of work and it had a alarm disklock still not been found but now have a new one and have a monimoto tracker on it
One tip I've heard from other riders when using a cover is: the worse and dirtier it looks over the bike, the better. xD
I have one of these (other brand) on my truck and I absolutely love it! I'm able to stop the engine remotely and do a lot of tracking stuff like watch the rute, know if broke the speed limit and more. Even if the thief stoles my phone, I'm able to send a SMS with other phone and stop the engine or track the location
That’s useful!
Good paddlock for my 89 fxsts...solid billet houseing, shackle covered by same housing, highly pick restisit, bash restisit the key itself is almost 2mm thick and has not only the "teeth" but then has a second "wave" style cut out and it came with a special card for the key so the locksmith can contact the manufacturer to obtain the new key.
Brand is security edge set me back just over $200 Australian dollars. (Probably around 150-170ish American)
32-year policeman here (retired now).
It sucks, but if they want it bad enough, they'll get it.
Great video! After my Grom was stolen, I bought into this GPS tracker for my HD Iron 883 and I'm loving it. And like you said, very affordable. I think well worth it in the long run.
The Grom grew up into an 883:)
You should have Bagger Bro take your bike and see if you can find him lol .
Very good information there Blockhead, GPS Tracker and Disc Locks for sure. Also in the garage I use video and if you have a single car garage there is the Guardsman Security Barrier.
I use an extremely heavy duty disclock and monimoto tracker when out. Keep my bikes chained together with heavy duty chains in the garage because I have seen neighbors garages get broken into. As a last resort they are all insured. Not much else to do.
Good deterrents! And insurance as a final measure 👍🏼
Was gotta miss this,good thing I woke up earlier at 3am today 😂
Good tips, thank you 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
When I get a bike I plan on using a combination of the disk brake lock like yours and some pretty thick chain to help bolster the security.
I've had two bikes stolen. And that is why I gave up on bikes for almost 13 years.
One) was stolen out of my house, the bike was lock with disk locks and a chain and they still managed to take. Second bike) I was riding the bike on a small street, I had just bought the bike and was getting the feel of the bike before heading out for a real ride on the street. Two guys pulled up on me with a gun and literally pulled me off the bike at gun point and road off. That was it for me and bikes I was done. Until earlier this year when my friend tried to get me back into motorcycles again.
Great tips! I can’t find neutral half the time anyway.😂
I live on the 3rd floor in the UK and have to leave my bike in a open car park. I use a disc lock with an Oxford chain and lock for the front and a heavy ass chain and lock for the back. From the front I chain that bad boy to my neighbours car wheel, then cover it and a loud alarm 😁
Keep educating us bro I wanna be a rider so bad but we know there's a lot of obstacles for the two wheel gangs
Are you a rider yet?
Useful information.
Great primer on motorcycle theft. A side note: Most (if not all) insurance companies give you a discount if you have an anti-theft device on the bike. My '03 Heritage has had the anti-theft device since it was new and I've never had a problem (though the device has never gone off) and I've stayed at many hotels, some of them kinda seedy. Just lucky I guess. Ride on.
This is absolutely true and a great little known fact. Some of our customers have told us the tracker paid for itself in insurance discounts. It varies enormously from insurer but it's really worth asking about.
Thanks it helps alot I just had my 99 ducati monster 750 just got stolen and it was my daily and my only ride so now ill be prepared
Could u make a vid showing the best bike security chains and locks to use pls
Had an invoxia on my mountain bike, pretty good device and app
Great motorcycle bro
Even when I garage my heritage I lock the forks. Alarm. disc lock. And most importantly insurance!
Good setup for sure!
awesome video
Bro I’m literally freaking out at ur motorcycle collection... that shit is dope and I wish to be you
Stop wishing and start working, all it takes is hard work 👍🏼
Put the disc brake lock to the rear wheel! The front wheel is way easier to remove.
Harleys have been getting stolen like crazy in Michigan. They will steal anything they can make some money off. Need to be aware and watch out for each other. To many see something shady and don't say a word.
What a beautiful garage.
Thanks 😊
Dude. I love your fleet. I hope your insurance bill isn't too bad.
Facts!
Great day bro
You need not worry.. you have the 4 legged full residential alarm system... 👍🐕
Great for when at home, haha
When traveling I run a chain thru the front and back tire.
I have the invoxia, it is easy to use and has been running for 2 months and has 2/3 battery still. Alerts when the bike moves and has a audible alert when you are close. Also updates firmware from the phone, just has to be close to the gps.
I'm really happy to hear that Thomas! We just released a new set of features and some behind the scenes improvements that should make your battery last a bit longer and your experience better overall.
To me, it's like burglar proofing your house, if they want in, they will, you are just trying to get them to go somewhere easier.
Any recommendations playlist for someone starting motorcycles on your own. I already watched your riding and shifting videos.
I'm in the same boat.
Check out MCRider, and Motojitsu.... MCRider is a wealth of knowledge. I'm less familiar with Motojitsu, but he has a great reputation as well.
@@Bahlzeron will do thanks
Great tips, but like you said if they really want it they'll get it. Stay safe out there.
For sure. Hence best to have insurance 👍🏼
I have the same Invoxia haha ! It's a french brand
Glad to hear you know about us! Yes!
Love the Dane Cook clip lmbo
Throwback lol
Just recently had my shadow stolen in July. Luckily the cops found it later the same day. Estimate was close to being totaled. Covered enough to fix it and get back on the road.
What are those tank side grip pads? Getting my MT-09 2021 SP tomorrow btw.
Tech spec 👍🏼
I live in a condo in Chicago with street parking. I'm planning on parking my bike in a parking garage with a disk brake, cover and gps tracker. I don't know if there's much else I can do.
Any idea if you could plug it into the ignition to charge as you ride?
Got spooked last year so have a 'Pricey' one in mine also. Can never be too careful.
To be fair you can’t prevent theft; try the kickstand truck with a Harley-Davidson Jiffy Stand you won’t get far…
I met a rider a few years ago that got creative and rigged his bike to basically catch on fire by remote and a child got hurt. What happened was, his bike was stolen and and he tracked it to a residence. He said he did alert the proper authorities but they couldn't help right away and he got impatient.
So he armed that device and finds out that the bike was being stored in a garage that caught on fire. Long story short, the thieves were caught but that rider has to do some jail time. He said that he was pretty sure it was because a child was burned.
This story is unreal and I'm surprised it didn't make on the news.
@blockhead what do you think about using the Apple AirTags?
Thank You Sir for sharing. I already do (3) of the the things that You have suggested for my Harley-Davidson Sportster: 1) Fork Lock 2) Disc Brake Alarm and 3) Cable Lock it as well !!!!!!!!! A " ROGUE - THIEF DOESN'T MIND STEALING SOMEONE ELSES HARD EARNED S*IT !!!!!!! I try to make it as hard as possible ! If I'm @ home when they get the damned nerve to do it , I HAVE A HOUSTON SOLUTION FOR THAT ALSO : SOMETHING REACHES OUT A HELL OF A LOT FASTER THAN AT&T ! I think that You get the point lol !!!!!!! Columbus, GA
Although my Dyna did not come with the Alarm , Siren Fob etc. I added it because I live in Albuquerque and vehicle theft is a Problem as it is in most big cities.
It was not as hard as some think and if anyone touches my bike I am instantly alerted.
Along with good insurance it gives me piece of mind
great vid but was hoping it would be the mt09 vid!
It was on the MT09, lol. You mean the 1k review vid?
@@BlockheadMoto lol yes haha
Hey blockhead I heard of a lock that is for your front brakes and throttle have you heard of that just wondering
Must be nice to have a bike worth stealing 🙄😂
How good is the HD alarm system on the street glide 2021???
Go ahead..steal my sh*t. I have full coverage. You can have my old bike and I'll get a new one.
I hate that feeling 🤬🤬 in nyc I had my bike R6 taken from my brother's driveway. Police had it recovered but their was lots of damage to bike. Should have lock on it 😔😔
Hey great video.
I just wanted to ask what phone mount you're currently using.
Thanks in advance.
He is using Rockform
Yup, Rokform. Link in bio for 25% off 👍🏼
@@MotoKriss Thank you.
@@BlockheadMoto Thank you. I will check it out.
Nice vidéo, thx. Question does it work in Europe? I m from belgium. We also have 4G here. But i readed "works everywher in us" so, wondering. Thanks
I need a stable like this man lol
All it takes is hard work 🤘🏼
I understand that lol I work 6 days normally a week but to many other things in life to afford that are more important so gotta deal with what you can get lol at least I got my foot in the door with one bike. Keep up the great videos man!!
Mo money, mo money, mo momeyyyyy... good for u @blockhead
GPS tracker can be stopped by putting the bike in a tin shed, or even in the back of a van. GSM trackers are thrown off just by parking the bike against a building. The best systems are the constantly monitored ones like LoJack (Datatool Tracker in the UK), but they also have their drawbacks in that the recovering of your bike will then be carried out within the law or not at all. Police have a different primary purpose in their actions, you want your bike back even if that means no arrest but they want the arrest even if that means the bike gets stripped or trashed.
A large dog bowl and lead just outside the garage does more to prevent theft than any alarm or tracking system.
I just bought this same bike. Curious as to how you have your phone mounted that way?
Congrats! It’s an awesome bike.

How many could you have under one account or would I have to pay a yearly fee for each one?
Can this tracker be used while it's charging? It's be nice to hide it somewhere and have a lead coming from the battery so the battery never runs down.
Hi Vinnie, yes! It can be charged and used at the same time.
Nice! I wasn’t sure but here’s Invoxia to answer, great job guys! 🤘🏼
GPS Trackers can be jammed with a cheap device as well.
Have you got a garage barrier
I'm soooo used to seeing my SP with asgraphishop tank/side grip pads.. all other SP's look like the tanks naked 🤭 I got a similar tracker. Even though it's locked behind a gate, in a locked garage, disc lock, chain lock and guarded by 3 vicious dogs & unmedicated roommates.. I think I've gone above and beyond. 🤭 But I do live in a city that thieves have been steeling all 4 tires off cars in broad daylight. 😳 😡
Can never be too safe! haha
Best anti theft system are 2 or 3 well trained Pittbulls chain to your bike! Come and get it now fuckers!
What about apple’s airtag?
Does it work out of country like if it’s in Mexico?
Ugly bikes might be a deterrent. Had a bicycle "borrowed" at the hanger Reagan's plane parked in front of at Point Mugu, my hat was on it, then got arrested for not wearing a hat. One guy told me once, "locks are to keep honest people honest." I asked if they had a scary health sticker, when I got my shot, make the bike look diseased.
New 2022 Chief has no fork lock, and no key ignition. I can start with the fob or a pin to turn the ignition on. There is a spot for fork locks, Indian just didn’t give us one 😑
Never noticed that, that’s weird.
Plus it was stolen right out from under my carport attached to my house at 5 am
This may sound stupid, but if you have an IPhone couldn’t you use the new Airtags to track your bike if it gets stolen?
AirTags are reliant on an iPhone Bluetooth network, thus it isn’t self sufficient. This GPS has a cellular chip in it, so not reliant on other people or iPhones.
As Blockhead mentioned, AirTag's rely on Bluetooth and being in close proximity to an iPhone. An additional benefit of a true GPS tracker is that you're able to access the tracker's complete travel history, and provide the authorities with all the data they need to recover the bike/convict the thief. The AirTag is extremely limited in what data it can provide (only showing you the last known position, nothing more).
You could weld the gps into the frame🤔
Big deterrent too is having a bike as ugly as hell And heavy as it can be
Locks are for honest people
What phone mount is on this bike?
Phone Mount | Rokform (Discount: BlockheadMoto25): bit.ly/BHMxRokform
the people thing might be referring to old people
True! Lessen the silver alerts, haha
it's so easy to steal a bike. I've helped a few guys with their bikes with my mini van. I can fit sport bikes 750 or less short wheel base. no prob.
I try to leave my bike as close to me as possible
This sounds like you’ve helped a few people steal a bike, but I know what you’re saying 😂
@@BlockheadMoto I've towed a few people after accidents or bike breaking down . I'm no theaf. lol but bring that I've helped people I see how easy it is for a bike to be taken
*purple burglar alarm*
I love how hard criminals work to be a p.o.s, just put some effort into being a decent human being.
Still better off buying a dog collar gps tracker. They get better battery life and quicker pings.
I want a Honda Grom.
Sadly I can’t afford it
Got my handle bars stolen off my bike Woke up for work and went outside and they We’re gone
What the hell, lol
All my wire was cut too
Another great video Block! As far as any type of locking anti theft device is concerned, try checking out "lockpickinglawyer" on You-tube. It's absolutely AMAZING how quick, and easy some locks can be bypassed with even the least amount of skill. But then again, the simplest of locks, is still a time killer when someone is trying to take what isn't theirs, so... Keep up the great work.🖤✌
I’ve seen his stuff before, pretty crazy how fast he is!
