Has anybody seen/installed the DIY alarm systems below?

Scroll down to Motorcycle Alarm Circuits section.

Have not read this site yet, but looks like the same circuits as above.

Been a few bikes stolen in the area lately at night so getting a bit nervous.
Live in an apartment complex and there are no garages. And if the power is out (happens frequently here were I live) then the electronic gate is left open...

I have no problem reading the schematics and building, but I'm not sure what the differences are between the alarms and which one to choose.

Any comments/suggestions please on which one to use?

Thanks, Jacques

Believe it or not, one of the best theft deterrents is an emblem I have on my bike.





































It says "GOLD WING"

Now, are you implying that nobody in their right mind would try to steal one because of how much they weigh? Or because they just don't want them?

Not sure why they aren't stolen, but that's one reason the insurance rates are so low on them.

By the way, I just looked at the H-D site, an Ultra Classic weighs in at 889 pounds.
Advertised weight for my Wing is about 860, so it's not the weight that makes them less attractive.
