right ive got a bit of a dilemma. we are going to newquay next month
camping and we'll be taking an 82 quadangle and a 83 looptail ripper

obviously there's well over a grands worth of bikes

the problem i have is it wont be feasible to take them everywhere with us $:-\$
any ideas how to keep them safe left in the tent

now it is a very modern tent with good locking doors but I'm really worried
about leaving them, although id hate to have to leave them at home

is there any good locking systems i could use?

The only thing you can do is to find something to lock them to, with a fecking good lock. You could get a BIG stake & drive it in the ground inside the tent, then lock them to that, but I think you may have to leave the stake there when you go

i knew i could count on you lot

yeah we will have a car but its a beetle cabriolet

safest , by the sounds of it would be chain them to your car , wheels or subframe somewhere

OR

ask the campsite if they have secure lock up and use that if you can

or chain them up wherever you go , pain but probably the safest

I know,, get a big nasty dog & tie him to the bikes

Blimey Rich, that is oldschool!!

lazychubs · « **Reply #12 on:** April 23, 2007, 07:19 PM »

for a mini yeah bugs dont have one lol
big chain thru the front beam if its not a 03 bug
or round the rear drive shaft get a decent motorbike one
thats like a ball bearing so they cant cut it

safest bet

is to leave em at home

im sure you can live without them for the duration of your vacation

to many minus,s in the equation for my liking

How about a 12v/230v inverter? wire the bikes together with 230volts, should keep most chav tea leaves off em

I would leave them at home, some right thieving scumbags hang out at run to the sun just to nick stuff, me and my mate both had our buses broken into at watergate bay a few years ago.

. not been back since.
