RE: bike security
It is pretty doubtful you can fit a full size (i.e. Kryptonite) security chain under the seat of an EX. I have a disc lock that I tried to store under the seat with the tool kit and that was a pretty tight squeeze. In fact it slipped one time and got in the way of the seat lock, I had a heck of a time getting the seat off. If you do get it to fit, be sure it doesn't obstruct the seat lock or slide down and contact the battery.

RE: bike security
I was just checking the posts on this web site and thought I would add a comment to something I believe may be not be quite right. I am engineer with Internatrix and I noticed the comment about the Internatrix alarm draing the battery on a Hayabusa. Anything can be possible but I doubt if the alarm is causing the problem, maybe with the LED's it pushed the battery to it's limit. The Internatrix alarm control unit draws 1.4 ma. and the antenna transceiver draws 17 ma. for a total of about 18.4 ma. To put this in prespective, a tail light draws about 500 ma. and a headlight aprox 5000 ma. or 5 Amps. If the alarm was connected to a typical motorcycle battery which is in the typical range of 20 to 30 Amp/hr. the battery would last close to 4 weeks if the motorcycle was never started. On the Internatrix web page FAQ there is an explination of Amp/hr and current drain.
I just felt it was important to present the facts.
Thank you.
