fullscreenaging Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Hi guys and girlsLong time since last post. I changed jobs last year and have been really busy with training in Denmark, getting used to shifts and general every day life stuff.......anyway, I have chopped the Tracer in for something a little bigger engine wise and extra cylinder wise (didn't realise I missed the in line 4 so much until I test rode [emoji23])I rang my insurance company to update details and they stipulated that this time I need to have a ground anchor...... ..... I have a wooden shed....Anyway after much searching for a suitable 'GROUND ANCHOR' that I could somehow attach to the floor or wall of my shed and not have any would be thief in fits of laughter at the futile attempt to stop them, I discovered this...."> I drilled out a hole in my shed floor then drilled a hole in the slab underneath and smacked it with a sledge hammer. Job done in 10 mins [emoji3]Hopefully this with help someone else on here that is struggling for a solutionSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigger004 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Nice one, makes it comply with insurance terms (hopefully!), thanks for sharing. I might have a use for that for a garden hammock too. Thx Sent by Tigger from my Tablet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeman Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 (edited) Would work better if you stuck it through the bike thief instead of the floor! Edited March 26, 2017 by Joeman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aleyj Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Hmmm, I know some people that would love the use of that, but maybe not for its intended purpose! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Hopefully you checked for any pipes/cables beforehand On a serious note that looks handy for areas where we are not aloud to install anchors into the road/pavement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fullscreenaging Posted March 26, 2017 Author Share Posted March 26, 2017 This is just a deterrent really. If a pro gets in they'll more than likely cut the chain with a grinder. They'll have to cut the disc lock too. This was the conversation I had with the guy at my ins company. If they want it bad enough, nothing will stop them Some funny comments....Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
