- amxpressExplorerI used one of these on my Kymco. Simple, light, small enough to keep under the seat when not in use.
Kyrptonite disc lock - Nutinelse2doExplorerAbus Granite Extreme is VERY expensive and supposedly the best chain out there.
There are a ton of videos on it. Like others have mentioned, if they really want it, they are going to take it. Make it as difficult as possible. Put an ABUS set up on it, and a motion alarm.

Take your pick. This website will show you what's available and the extent of security with each product.
Locks - is_it_friday_yeExplorerI've heard that the square chain is harder to cut with bolt cutters.

I'd probably pair it up with a decent pad lock and call it a day. If they want it, nothing will stop them. Maybe cover it also. - powderman426Explorer

There's no such thing as a good Master lock. All Master locks are relatively easy to pick and all chain is very easily cut.

Not all chain is easy to cut. Try and cut this Chain
Better set aside a week or bring a torch.
Really??
My Makita and a laser blade will make short work of it.
Thanks for posting. I needed a good chuckle after I heard the weather report and I wasn't ready to get on the road. - colliehaulerExplorer III

I might use a motion alarm, thanks.
I use a Xena disk lock with motion alarm. Of course they could ignore the alarm and lift it with a couple of guys- in a van and gone. They steal motorcycles from underground parking in condos this way. All you can do is make it a little more difficult and hope they take easier pickings. I don't think scooters are prime targets, unlike sport bikes. - colliehaulerExplorer III

I have already called the park and it is more then welcome. My scooter is very quite my Diesel truck is very loud.
If you have specific parks in mind check their rules. Some we have been to only allowed scooters and motorcycles from your site to the gate, not around the park. - fatmanobxExplorerGOOD INSURANCE!! and a lock and chain. I have a Burgman 650 I tow behind my TC. My scoot is almost 600 pounds and has handle bar lock to keep it from being rolled off.
