Re: U-Lock info...

Hi Rig

The Squire 290M U Lock.  This has the added advantage as it comes with a 1m
approx cable which you can optionally use to secure other items to or the
bike to something else.  When the D of the lock is put on it locks it all
securely in place.  This lock was a Ride best buy and cost me £ 51.  I store
it dissasembled in the underseat tray, with the prongs going through the two
holes at the back of the tray.  Just fits.   I lock the bike by pushing the
prongs either side of a spoke of the rear wheel (starting from the exhaust
side) and then either side of the swing arm.  Nice snug fit.  Haven't used
the cable part of the lock yet, but it's there if I need it.

additionally

I use the Abus Granit Quick as my disklock which was also a Ride Best buy.
I initially bought the Halford's padlock, but it won't fit through any of
the disk holes.

Hope this helps.
Phil Guy

Seeing as were all talking of disk locks, anyone know of a U-Lock (or
Shackle Lock) that fit's under the ST's saddle? (Except for the Triumph one)

I currently have an Oxford ROC and need to have my panniers fitted  if I
wish to carry the lock, This can be a PITA if I know that I'm going to be in
town a lot as it makes filtering in traffic _more_ hazardous due to the side
of the boxes.

I did think of a disk lock, but ever since leaving one fitted to my Honda
CB100N 13 years ago and then flying off it, all to the amusement of my
fellow students (mostly female!) I don't really trust myself not to do the
same.
