What is the best Alarm for deterring passing fiddlers, as in when the Bikes parked up in Town or at a Cafe etc. Am thinking proximity deterrents so the Alarm yaps at em if they get too close etc. I don't consider an Alarm much use against a professional Thief though so that is a secondary concern really.
My datatool one, which is universally hated and despised on here but touchwood has behaved itself for me so far, has a very twitchy trembler alarm. A knuckle tap on the tank will start it growling and bitching, but no proximity detector, I'm afraid.
DATEATOOL system 3 i Have it's good stuff noone can f@@k about with your bike it will kicking off big time wind don't set it off!
Yeah I had a data tool on a triumph I had and it was very good. I see honda are doing there own it was on one of the Honda dealers websites.
Had a datatool 3 on my Speed, very very sensitive...could even fart near it and it went off! Took a gamble(Dealer recommended it over the Averto)and had one fitted to my 2012 Blade - brilliant so far, maybe the dealer set it to a less sensitive setting? However give it a tap on the body and it goes nuts - just what is needed when one is away from the bike... but as you will find on here - you pays your money you takes your choice.
Just getting my datatool s4 removed as it keeps draining the battery, every alarm I have had has caused me nothing but problems, I don't think they work as a deterrent anymore, so will not be fitting another anytime soon.
I don't use Alarms on my bikes and never had a reason to have one. not many take any notice of them. but only my view
I have a Datatool System 4 Red on my 2012 blade - been good as gold apart from a few freak set-offs relating to the rear seat magnetic switch. I've got the sensitivity right up to the point I can't even touch the tyres without getting a warning beep. I can't see it stopping the bike being lifted but hopefully it's enough deterrent to persuade Mr Thief to find an easier nick.
Question to those that have had myther.......................... Are these system 4 models and were they proffessionaly installed? Question to samd1985.............................. My Bike is a 2012 model also, was yours a Pro install and if so how much was it? As I said before the Alarm is mainly to stop sticky fingered kids etc pawing at me baby when parked up, I have other deterrents for Theft prevention at home!
iy a blast in the air off a that bad boy will see the light fingers buggers off and will be better than any datafool alarm
My datatool s3 got my insurance down by 150!quid so my staying plus if it does go beeeep beep my Crossbow is handy and it would be head shot! As my last bike (stolen) never came back! Prob on eBay still! police are waste of time! Only good for crime number:banghead:
I have been looking for years as to where to get the alarm system that was fitted to the Bat Mobile in Batman Returns! But still looking!!!!
