London has high rates of motorcycle and scooter theft, and 125cc scooters are a common target. A few simple steps make your bike much harder to steal.
Lock it to something solid
Use a strong disc lock with a reminder cable, plus a heavy chain to a fixed object or ground anchor whenever you can.
Fit a tracker
A GPS tracker can help police locate a stolen bike quickly. Choose one that is professionally fitted and hidden.
Alarm and immobiliser
An alarm draws attention, and an immobiliser makes the bike harder to ride away.
Park smart
Busy, well-lit places with CCTV are best. At home, use a ground anchor and a cover so the bike is less tempting.
Never leave the key
Not even for a quick delivery drop-off.
Security marking
Marking your bike's parts makes it harder for thieves to sell.
