I put it at the foot of the bed every night. Take the old lady, leave the raptor alone.

I put my quad in my garage with 6 boxers(dogs) all around it. So if someone goes to still it, they will be chewed up...nah

Actually, It just sits in my garage that is locked. We sit back semi-far which helps and I doubt someone will come all the way down my driveway and smash down the door and roll out my quad...I hope someone doesn't try that.

One thing I like about where I live I don't worry about teft that much. I have left my Raptor on my trailor in the parking lot of our apartment for a couple weeks at a time. I do use a cable style lock to the trailor but you could roll the trailor off or just hook to and drive off. To this date I haven't had any problems, knock on wood.

I keep mine in a locked garage that has a monitored security system. If that dosen't work I have a 10 gauge mossberg with an 18.1/8' barrel (pump & pistol grip).[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I have mine rigged up to 12 guage shot gun pointed just above the hight of the Raptor. Any movement more than 1" without undoing the 15lb test fishing line and off with their head.

To start, I have a 65 lbs female pitbull that will attack a shadow in the night, but I also use a HD railroad type chain and lock. The chain is 10' long, the link thickness is literally 1/2"-5/8", is rubber coated and weighs 75+ lbs, through the frame and to a piece of I-beam I welded to the ceiling I-beam support, connected to a lock that is the biggest heaviest lock I have ever seen in my life. If they can manage to burn the chain or lock off, without my dog hearing them, they've earned it!

Just kidding. I run one of those cables throgh it and a long large lock closed around the rear sprocket through the holes so the bike won't roll.
