I use a 3/8” coated cable and a squire lock. They can be cut, but not without power tools. Most thieves will not want to make that kind of noise and move on to a better target

I do the same as jodyfj40 but use 4 separate cables through each rim and onto the suspension.

All 4 have keyed alike locks. Figure at least it will slow them down a bit or make enough noise when they show up with a battery powered cut off tool. Just enough time for me bring my friend from Louisville. His name is "Slugger"

Got another couple friends if the one from Louisville does not work.

 

If you want to protect your rzr get a gps tracking unit hardwired and hide it. Costs about $200 upfront and $15/month or so. PM me if you want advice on what I use.

 

Mine is in an enclosed trailer when traveling. If someone does get it the gps tracker will function for at least several days after they cut power to it, if they cut power to it. and they'll never find it! at least not before I find them!

 

when getting a coated cable is there anything special to look for ? ive seen 6 ft of 1/2 in cable on amazon for less than 20 bucks , seems too cheap to be any good .

 

I have a RZRTracker in mine and full coverage insurance. If they want it bad enough, they're going to get it.

I also do what I can to limit my exposure - sometimes you can't though.

 

I have RZRTracker gps hardwired in the machine, and a TRAK 4 gps in the truck.

Then i have a 25' 1/2" chain that i wrap around the front suspension, around the front of the open trailer, and around the rear axle of myExcursion.

Then security cable from steering wheel, to side of open trailer, secured with a big ass New York U lock.

Then security cable locking the trailer ramp up with another New York U lock .

Then a wheel lock on the trailer.

Then, motion lights with 125 db sirens strategically placed where they shouldn't go off unless you're up close and personal to my rig.

If nothing else, the shear amount of locks and chains and cables and wheel locks should deter any crackhead thieves.

 

Full coverage insurance is a must, and a GPS tracker is a great thing to have as well. Also some parking brakes, like the spring brake thingy have a hole to put a pad lock through

 

Full coverage.
Other than a hidden battery disconnect i don't do much since mine is close by.
If i went to Glamis i would sure add more security
If they want it they'll take it.
Someone brought up seats being stolen. Pretty EZ to do.
Don't be this guy

 

I run a chain through it and all the quads and bikes any time we camp over night. I carry the chain anyway so it works for me. Nothing is unbeatable but it gives me piece of mind

 

If you have a NRG quick release steering wheel they make a lock so no other steering wheel can go on, makes it real hard to steer. Here's what it looks like.

Thanks for the ideas guys ! i do have full coverage , but with that they wouldnt give you what it would cost to replace it , i wonder when stolen are they towed off , driven off , trailered off ?

 

Thats not true as far as insurance not paying what yoh have in it.

Theres a thread in general now about progressive insurance and how you can add up to $30,000 in additional accessory coverage plus the acv of the machine....so potentially in the neighborhood of $55,000 in coverage for a total loss claim.

And the premiums are in the $300-500 yr range.

For a good way to KEEP it from being stolen, the Spring Brake Thingy lockable parking brake along with the ignition lockout relay will send them onto the next potential victim.
Even with great insurance, most of us would rather not have to deal with that side of it. Keep them them taking it in the first place.

Some insurance companies are giving reductions for having anti theft devices like this.

Our parking brakes, (which you need anyway for protecting your tranny) mount up in about 2 minutes, and the relay in 30 - 45 minutes tops.

How about simply removing the lug nuts. If it moves and wheels fall off, end of story. tracker and full coverage insurance goes along way.

other great deterrent is large chain around the buggy then to to my Bus. release the air from the suspension pulls the chain tight. without putting air back into the but the buggy is not going to move. ( used it once in a pinch before I thought about removing lug nuts)

Oh did I mention I have a dog in the bus that likes to wake me up to see who is outside. Buggy is parked outside my window and shades left open so the dog can watch the sunset and for thieves.

so far it has worked, buggy is there every morning.

 

I havean alarm on my cars

 

The lockable Spring Brake Thingy is cheap insurance and gives you a park brake also. I have these in stock:
