If you own a motorcycle and are afraid of being stolen, you need to take steps to prevent theft.

Steps
1 Take advantage of the built-in lock in your motorcycle, but only as an additional deterrent to a thief. Even though these locks are easy to pick, they should be used as a complement to other preventive measures. 
2 Add disc brake locks as part of a defensive strategy against stealing your motorcycle. Disc brake locks are installed to prevent thieves from driving away on your motorcycle. 
3 By using mechanical deterrents, you will make it even more difficult to steal your motorcycle. You can, for example, disconnect the electrical connector, unscrew the spark plug, or simply shut off the fuel supply. In this case, it is hoped that the thief may think that your motorcycle is broken and will not look for the problem and solutions. 
4 Connect the secret toggle switch to make the thief waste time looking for this toggle switch. The toggle switch must be on for the rider to start the motorcycle. 
5 If you are stopping to go on business, it is better to park your motorcycle in an open area with a large flow of people and cars. If you go to a restaurant, the safest thing to do is leave your motorcycle in a place where you can observe it while you are in the restaurant. You can cover your motorcycle with a tarpaulin cover, especially if you spend a lot of money on repairs and maintenance. No need to turn ordinary interest into temptation. - If possible, park your motorcycle in hard-to-reach places. If such a place is very difficult to enter and exit, then your motorcycle will lose its attractiveness in the eyes of a thief. Small parking inconveniences will probably pay off many times over.
6 Use a special lock to tie your motorcycle to immobilized objects and objects. Another tip is to chain your motorcycle wheel to your friend's motorcycle wheel. 
7 Never leave your motorcycle running, even for a few moments. It only takes a few seconds for someone to jump on your motorcycle and drive away. Also, don't hide your keys in a motorcycle.
Tips
- Consideration should be given to installing equipment to track the location of your motorcycle, especially if you have an expensive one or have spent a lot of money on upgrading it. With the help of the GPS system, you will be able to find out where your motorcycle was taken and you can return it unharmed.
- Insure your motorcycle in order not to lose financially if it is stolen. But if you've invested a large amount of money to customize your motorcycle, insurance won't cover that. To properly protect your motorcycle from theft, you need to combine and use all the tips at the same time.
