Now a days, we can buy a scooter alarms in
many shapes and sizes
and it is often not
a luxury but a necessity to
prevent theft. It does not provide complete protection but tt's all about making it more
difficult in the hope the scooter becomes less interesting for the thief
As in the topic "-My first scooter-" where my previous scooters
had a chipkey integrated wich making them less attractive to thieves, today it is still necessary to have an
extra alarm installed so that
it becomes more unattractive to steal the scooter.
The price for a scooter alarm is no longer expensive as before. Motor alarms can also be used because they work on the same Voltage. Namely. . . . 12 Volts DC from a
battery.
For my scooter i chosed for
a "-Spy alarm-". These
alarms are easy to install and reliable aswel in use.The speaker was later dismantled because i found
it unnecessary. The led indicator which indicates the status is more than sufficient.
Before i installed the alarm installed, i checked it in a test rig and programmed
both keys. During the test fase, i checked all the functions to
make shure they all work properly. Then i started to build in the alarm
system. It operates for more then 2 years already and no problems what so ever.
All wirings are taped for weather protection. The taping is really
necessary. Also. . . . it looks better and gives an finishing touch.
The led indicator
ii build into the cockpit. It had to be partially
disassembled. I found this the best place because it's a nice addition for the cockpit.After everything checked again and the alarm
tested everyting is put together and the system became operational.
If the scooter is not used foor a longer period of time, the battery is connected to a battery trickle charger as explained in topic " -12 Volt charging system on your scoot- " The battery is then maintained and remains in good condition. Especially during the winter period
