Keeping Your Machine Guarded in the Off Season We have noticed a slight increase in motorcycle and ATV theft in the past few months. There is nothing worse than noticing your bike missing after waiting all month for that perfect day to ride! I know it has happened to more than one of us, you park your machine for the winter and forget about it. Then that perfect Sunday afternoon is there, just begging for you to take out your bike. But your bike is stolen. Who? How? When? Why did I cancel my insurance? We want to give everyone some basic tips on protecting your machine. 1. Don’t cancel your comprehensive insurance! Comprehensive, or “comp”, typically covers theft, fire, wind, and vandalism. This is last thing you want to drop, especially if you are making payments on a newer motorcycle. If insurance is too costly, look at dropping some of the less necessary coverage while your bike is sitting up or possibly raising your deductibles. We offer some great options for seasonal riders. 2. Keep the keys in a secure place. I know this sounds very elementary, but it is true. I can’t tell you the number of people that park their bike in a “safe” location, but leave the keys in the ignition. Not only is this a bad idea, but most insurance companies won’t cover your loss. 3. Park your bike in the front of your garage and keep it covered. Thieves love to prowl alley ways and open garages, especially this time of the year. If you keep your pride and joy in the front of the garage and covered, potential bike thieves are less likely to notice it. If it is inconvenient for them to push out of your garage, chances are they will not bother. 4. Install a Lojack or MoGo theft-recovery device. An audible alarm is nice, but for about the same price you can get something that will help the police make an actual recovery. Lojack is simple, your street bike gets stolen and all you need to do is tell the police. Once the VIN is in the national computer, the system uplinks itself and the unit sends a silent signal to police cars. It will guide the police to the location of the stolen motorcycle. MoGo uses cellular technology and it can be installed on ANYTHING. Simply report your bike stolen and then call MoGo’s call center and they will “ping” your bike and notify the police of the unit’s exact location. In many instances, the police will request a satellite view and the MoGo staff can send these images via email directly to the officer’s in-car computer. We also recommend attaching a battery tender. Both of these units require a 12 volt source to operate. If the bike sits up too long, the battery could possibly drain and make your recovery device ineffective. Not to mention, when you are ready to ride your bike will be ready! 5. Keep your bike cabled to a stationary object. Even if it is inside the garage, we recommend cabling it to something immovable. If the bike is chained to a light pole, a bench, a metal post, etc… it makes that machine all the harder to steal. This method is not fool-proof but it will help deter a would-be thief. Most bikes we have seen stolen are usually loaded into a van or on a trailer. If the bike can’t be picked up, then it can’t be stolen. Stop by Dallas Honda and we can help you keep your bike safe and sound! WINTERIZE YOUR MACHINE One of the most overlooked items going into the cold months is proper winterization. Living in Texas, many people overlook the importance of proper winterization. With watercraft, this is especially important. True, we don’t have that many cold days here in N. Texas, but all it takes is one night of low temperatures to make water freeze. Water will typically stay in the block and cooling system of your $10,000 Aquatrax when you take it out of the lake. The water can stay inside for months and you just forget about it, until that first freeze (yes, even in the garage you are still at risk). When water freezes, it expands. This expansion is what puts pressure and stress on the engine block, thus causing it to crack and do thousands of dollars in damage. Not to mention, the fuel in the tank will also go bad and cause serious damage to the fuel lines, intake, and electronic injectors. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Contact our service department to schedule your winter service before the first cold snap. Pick-up and delivery service may also be available in the Dallas-Metro area. Don’t let your street bike or off road machine go neglected in the winter months. Remember, when the fuel goes bad it will create a varnish in the gas tank, create gunk in the fuel lines, and create major issues in the fuel injection system. One other thing to consider is a battery tender. For only $34.95 you can purchase a great little device that will stay connected to your battery when your bike is not running. Owning a bike is fun and the experience should be worry free. Just take a few minutes to properly prepare your bike for the cold spell and when that first ray of sunshine hits, you can jump on and ride. Elliott or David can be reached in our friendly service department. Call them to schedule your service today. You can also contact our parts department or stop in today to pick up your fuel stabilizer and Battery Tender. Call 972-619-2000 and we’ll get you set up today!!!! 2009 Honda CRF®450R $7,599.00 The Honda CRF450R has always been out in front. But now it's WAY out in front.
