    Can anyone recommend an alarmed disc lock for a 1999 VFR, Xena do one I like but after contacting them they are unsure if it will fit correctly ?

    Just bought an abus one (i think the 430). Fits fine. Only issue is that the alarm is not very sensitlve, which is probably a good thing in windy conditions, but means you can move the lock a fair bit before the alarm goes off!

    I have the ''ABUS DETECTO 7000 RS'' very sensitive and fits in its own pouch or under the seat or in your pocket (motorcycle jacket decent size pocket)
    Had it for 6 mths now and use it every day at work and on weekend rides out,
    Great item and its loud enough to catch peoples attention.
    I would recommend it.

    Hope this helps. :)

    I have a Xena for my '02. Fits fine, but the alarm was really sensitive. Then one morning it wouldn't shut off and I rode to work with the alarm wailing the whole time lol. Had to take the battery out to kill it.

    Previous owner of my bike had a Xena disc lock and he said it worked great. He complained it was a bit sensitive and he eventually removed the battery. A few weeks after removing the battery he attempted to ride off without removing it. Needless to say, a few things got bent broken and badly scratched.
