So what's the moral of the story? Don't bother to lock your bike? Always lock it in the garage?

Get a dog and chain it to the bike? Lock a dog to your bike and then chain another dog to the first dog as backup?
Then, if you have a third dog, chain that dog to the second dog, just for insurance. Then get insurance. And another dog.

Buy a shit bike, let it rust, and spraypaint it badly?

I dunno. At some point it's just paranoia.

I was a locksmith, retired seven years ago. I can pick most locks and still have shims shown in the first video
that are sold to locksmiths. Picking a lock is not as easy as that video portrays. I well remember spending many hours practicing before I could succesfully pick pin locks.
Wafer locks were easier.

Sometimes if a lock is damaged, no one would be able to pick it open.

I can get through most locks within a minute - it destroys the lock but not the door. I wont tell you how.

Once I was called to open a door on the beach front at Paihia, I tried every trick I knew and the lock would not turn. In disgust I kicked the door and it came open!!
It was not been locked only jammed. Fortunatly no one saw me
do it. Never again did I assume the customer was right.

I was called to a bank to open a filing cabinet, it was close to closing time and several of the staff were watching. I picked open the lock in about 40 seconds, turned to the assembled staff and said thats easy now where in the vault.
My joke fell on unresponsive ears, not a smile ensued.
They did not know that I could not crack a safe. That takes lots of training and special advice on each safe. My little buisness did not need for me to get that training. I made a hasty apology explained that it was a joke. Lesson learned.

I made a man a spare key for his safe, tested it and handed it over. Some months later he rang me to come and open his safe. I enquired "Where is the spare key" "Locked in the safe" was his reply.

I think I have posted here before about the only way to make your home, bike shed, burglar proof. Unfortunatly it is illegal in NZ. In USA they have sound generating alarms that it is impossible to stay in the room with, even with ear muffs. It has been reported that shitheads have dived through plate glass windows to get away from the pain inflicted by these devilish fequencys. HOW I WISH

I used a vespa scooter to get around on as a locksmith, I had a carrier on front to put my toolbox on and a back box and towbar (genuine vespa item) which I could use if I needed anything else.
