    perhaps its me, perhaps oop north its different, but most of the time I only ever secure my bike with the steering lock. I do carry an abus granit U lock and bought an alarmed disk lock last week but only intend to use them when I leave in an exposed place for a long time. My assessment of risk on the campsite or anywhere you park this weekend would be minimal.
    2001 Transalp XLV650. Faithful old friend still chugging away nearly 100,00miles
    2007 Varadero XLV1000. Now you're torquing but sadly gone to another forum member. One of the best bikes - period.

    Did you see the thread about stolen AT in or around Hull on Monday?
    bike nicked :(
    RD07a, reg in 2001, Black, heated grips, short screen, Scottoiler, Givi top box and panniers, DataTag, full Riky Cross crash bars, Baglux tank cover, Facet pump, mostly 200 miles to reserve and presently a lot happier since being loved up at Chad's hospital for sick ATs!
