Yamaha Sportbike RoadLok Anti-Theft Solution

Motorcycles are much more vulnerable when it comes to theft than cars, and that’s a fact. Fortunately, more and more riders are aware of this problem and look for efficient ways of protecting their bike from thieves. Most targeted motorcycle models are the most common ones, namely Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, BMW, Kawasaki or Ducati.

Therefore, model-specific motorcycle locking systems manufacturer, RoadLoK Security has just released anti-theft systems for Yamaha’s sportbike and its Star motorcycle lineup.

“The patented technology powering each RoadLoK powersport locking system provides 100 percent safe anti-theft locking security due to the system’s permanently-mounted lock body—which literally becomes a part of the vehicle’s frame,” a company statement says.

This gives the Yamaha R6, R1 and FZ6R owners the opportunity to secure their motorcycles with RoadLoK’s patented locking system which, unlike disc locks, padlocks, or chains, completely immobilizes the vehicle without causing damage to the vehicle or rider injury.

Moreover, the same anti-theft locking system has been developed for Yamaha’s Star motorcycle riders, namely the V-Star, Royal Star, Road Star and VMAX owners.

“The frame-mounted solution eliminates movement completely while the system is engaged—the very movement which makes disc locks, padlocks, and chains so very dangerous if the rider forgets to remove those devices before attempting to ride off,” the statement added.

“Additionally, the removable BrakeBolt pin, which keeps the bike locked right where the rider parks the vehicle, guarantees that the system will never accidentally lock while the rider is operating the vehicle. And, as with all RoadLoK systems, customers are eligible for an insurance discount when they lock their Yamaha with a RoadLoK system.”
