Just the mention made me immediately go to eBay to search for one. I must visit and see yours... where did you say you live????? ;-) As for PacSafe, yes, I am somewhat familiar with them - at one point I think I posted about one of their products, although I admit that I've never purchased one. A good idea for a future review.... Thx. kc ooooo… a 500cc single cylinder bike. Just the mention made me immediately go to eBay to search for one.

A good idea for a future review….

Their stuff is a little bit pricey, but their quality is excellent. A dear friend of mine -- now deceased -- used one of their backpacks as his laptop carrying case (it was the predecessor to their MetroSafe 300) http://www.pacsafe.com/www/index.php?_room=3&_action=detail&id=65 He also had one of their Hip Packs, although I don't remember which one. Both of those products really impressed me for their thoughtful design and quality of assembly, not to mention the ability to keep everything SECURE! I live in Hawai'i now, and I think the Hip Packs would be a fabulous idea for going to the beach. You can lock your wallet, iPod, etc., securely to a picnic table leg, or to a lamp post, or even a tree, and go swimming without worrying about your stuff "walking away." I've never used their specifically-motorcycle-oriented stuff, but I have no doubt it's the same quality and thoughtful design.

Great idea at a low cost. My son uses this type lock for his mountain bike and is a very strong lock...
