You could ask these people; http://www.mcservicing.com/index1.html I am not sure off the top of my head if they fit, but they fixed the one on my Daytona that was "sulking". It couldn't hurt to ask. I'd use them again.
Cheers, looks very useful as I ride through Ware every day. -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) Alfa 116 Giulietta 3.0l (Really) Sprint 1.7 75 TS 156 TS S2 Suzuki Bandit 600 #Triumph Speed Triple: Black with extra black bits (I live in hope) www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk
I had some alarmery stuff fitted by a Carol Nash Fitter as a part of my insurance deal. Worth giving them a call to see who they use in your area? The guy that did mine was self employed and did them when asked. HTH.
It might well. I can get someone to come fit at work that would be ideal, ta. -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) Alfa 116 Giulietta 3.0l (Really) Sprint 1.7 75 TS 156 TS S2 Suzuki Bandit 600 #Triumph Speed Triple: Black with extra black bits (I live in hope) www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk

>, says... I've never considered alarms a problem, until I got the 10R with it's built in factory immobiliser that is. So much less hassle, it doesn't go off when filling up with petrol, it doesn't throw a fit in high winds, and yet it still means the bike can't be started without an encoded key, and the insurers seem ok with it.
I think factory fit ones are probably OK. Aftermarket ones are *all* shite. Without exception.[1] [1] Generalisations R Us.
You're lucky if your insco accepts the Kawasaki immobiliser as being adequate. CN said that if it's not Thatcham approved then it doesn't count and my underwriters insisted on an alarm.
Biketeam (ERS) happily accepted it and gave me a very favourable price for fully comp. £360 quid. Which is now the cheapest I've ever paid for bike insurance and it's the most expensive bike.
That's why I switched from CN , "It is a condition of our insurance that you have an approved alarm" and by the way we'll sell one to you for more than the price of the insurance. Not only that, the "discount" is bugger all and it would take about 6 years to recover the cost of putting the alarm on. If it's a brand new model it's unlikely to have been approved by Thatcham and it probably isn't worth it for the manufacturer to get approval for a specific sector of the British insurance market. I'm pretty sure that four years on the Honda HISS is probably still not approved by Thatcham. I just get my insurance from Motorcycle Direct who seem able to find an insurance company who accept it.
If the quality of testing done on alarms by Thatcham is the same as their work on chains I wouldn't bother.
