I like this alarm...

Re: If I owned this forum...

Holy **** has it snowed?

Chill out, a bike is a bike. Condos are known target spots. If you value it more than family you truly are ****ed up.

MLadin if is is such a great buy why don't YOU pony up the money for this bulk buy INSTEAD of advising others on THEIR financial decisions? I'd be downright insulted if you tried to tell me what I should or shouldn't do with my money.

Then you wouldn't get to join this forum and write "my GSX-R was just stolen cause I left it in above ground apartment building parking with no alarm or protection on it." Like what is currently on the forum right now. Nothing personal, I just want to see those threads stop via stopping the laziness of GTA members before they sadly have to write that story.

I can see where politicians and policy wonks get their harebrained ideas in the interest of the public good, just a minor user fee if you don't mind.

Didn't answer my question, try again.

Re: If I owned this forum...

See Chaseontwowheels a popular Vlogger from Atlanta. This very nice guy's story goes something like this:

2009 R6 - stolen
2009 R6 - stolen
2009 R6 - stolen
Rides reserve bike, 2009 WR 250
2009 WR 250 - stolen

Each time a bike was stolen, he moved.

At which time does a person grow a brain and protect the bike? I've been watching this guy lately and it's the same story as here.

GTAM would make no money off the buy.

More negativity. This has become a board for dark trolls. You all should save what you write for your therapists and pause next time you post here for the good of all. Some of you nicer people, take back thus forum. Start posting!

Re: If I owned this forum...

OK, here goes.

If you can't afford to replace something buy insurance. If you can't afford to replace something don't buy it. If your stuff is constantly getting stolen and you can't deal with it (by buying aftermarket alarms etc) then maybe consider not buying it.

Life is not fair, esp for the peeps on the right side of the law

My question was why don't YOU do the public service kindness and buy 50 alarms? Sell em for what you paid.

That's not the point. But if I owned the forum that holds no appeal either.

I got a lawn to rake, gotta be more productive.

Who the **** would join a forum even with a free "gift" for 100 beans? Why the hell would that business(peep) put up that kind of cash.

Have a good day

That's a lot of thefts! There has to be some way to squash these thefts. I think my idea holds merit. Someone please steal it.

If you owned this forum, you would get very lonely, because you would be the only person here.

You missed the idea. The potential new member gets a discount code for amazon. GTAM is not involved in the transaction or any money. Simply put, to become a member of this forum, you're going to have to protect your bike. I've got to go shovel snow

Sure, now that you're limbered up from raking a young business prodigy over the coals. Nice.

Rather than dark members like yourself posting dark **** all the time? Time to clean house! This forum has never been so dead. People naturally deflect from negativity. Ever wonder where all the good, funny, intelligent members have gone?

That would still be 4k bikes. And there's only 6500 members using Tapatalk. If all the bikes were stolen from Tapatalk users, that number jumps to 66%. Not sure where I'm going with this. Buy an old cruiser. Make sure it's purple. Best anti theft eva!

Re: If I owned this forum...

Nice attitude. Some people care about their bikes more than spouses, family members. It's not a publicly traded company.

OK now I get it.... the cold weather turned you to the gtam resident troll.

Fwiw some domains are cheaper them $100. make your dream a reality

Re: If I owned this forum...

this thread actually had me laughing....

here are some questions for the OP to think about while he is reading this

- what if the potential new subscriber doesn't have a motorcycle when he / she joins?

- What if after reading this forum he / she decides a motorcycle is not their thing? why should they be stuck with a useless lock that pages you whenever a squirl runs past the transmitter ?

- what if I already have a superior alarm system?

- what if my bike is insured and I don't care if it gets stolen?

now to address some of your concerns:

- just because everyone doesn't embrace your "genius" idea, and treats it like the gospel doesn't mean they are being negative, they just disagree with you, get over it.

- if you think that your bike holds more value than you family members, friends, or humans in general, you need to have your head examined, its only a piece of metal on rubber wheels that goes vroom vroom or braap braap or yut ughhhhh nothing more.

- this specific alarm is absolutely useless if you live in a condo because by the time you wait for the elevator and make your way down to the underground your bike will be in the back of a white van, with a pillow duct tapes around the alarm so it doesn't annoy the vehicles occupants

- out of everyone who replied I have yet to see one reply that says "OMG, how did we not think of this before, this is absolute genius!", coincidence?

- I have 2 bikes, many people on this forum have more than 2, how do I decide which one of them I protect with my new GTAM mandated alarm?

- what is so special about this product? pager alarms have been around for years, and thiefs have been stealing cars / bikes with or without them.


anyway not trying to bring you down just trying to show some different views on your proposal.

Cheers

Max
