Parking brake ?

Something to ponder. Won't necessarily stop the bike from being pushed off the stand but might put a bigger dent in the offending vehicle !

You said it right. I was just thinking of a simple Velcro strap to pull the clutch lever in for easier on the engine start ups. For brakes, they sell a locking device as security against theft/. I will post a link once I recover it. Either way, both seem like good measures to protect the bikes and they would add up. In my case, there is a big difference between you guys who just keep your bikes in garages or work shops, and me keeping mine on the mean streets of Vancouver. That also includes the weather ;)

I just bypassed the clutch switch for starting but not sure if that’s always an option.
