If only I knew electronics like you guys. I'm just stuck with using spears and clubs for defense. :lol: :lol:
Ohh, I like that - a physical switch and a keyless anti-theft... at knife-pointian.mich said:This is a good idea, on my bike i just soldered a switch between the positive and ignition wire, not secure at all but i take my battery off the bike so it doesnt make a huge difference, the wires could be pulled inside the controller, and the switch replaced with some remotely activated switch that when the transmitter is within 50 meters or even 10 meters (on $1000 ebike i doubt someones gonna pull a gun, if they have a knife then ill be able to run and get the popo) turns on/off.

I had a pipe-dream of using a chip-in-glove to disable the throttle, or make it so it's on the lowest 3-way. That way if a cop pulls me over for speeding - there's no way to replicate the power setting without my hands in very close proximity. Tie that into anti-theft and the thief escapes at grandma-speed.
More coffee! KF

Do you pay $15 a month???MattyCiii said:I bought a GPS tracker/alarm system for my bike. Put a SIM chip in it and it'll report its position back to you. There are wires/outputs for things like fuel pump disable (even included a relay for this purpose), and a secret "carjack panic button", but I did not explore what that does. Has a key fob for close range activation/deactivation, and can be remotely activated through text message commands. This might be just the ticket. I pay about $15 for the SIM chip on AT&T as an "extra line" on the family plan.

You don't want to short it out going to the plug IE hi voltage side of the coil. There is lots of easy ways to do this. If I was you I would wire it like the kill switch hooked to the RFID switch and keep it hidden. You can try to do something that brakes the circuit from the trigger coil to the CDI or ECU if you think the kill switch is to easy to be hot wired by the thieves.Harold in CR said:OK. Time to bring this back to the drawing board. I have had requests to design something for gas engined motorcycles. The point the gun and ride off assholes need to be deterred.
I have a courier service that wants to do ALL his motos.
Some way to cut the ignition, without burning up the electronics would be a good start. My son is looking, today, for an add on door lock type actuator. I hope to get it rigged to push a bar through the spokes and have it jam up against the forks, to face plant the asshole in front of a bus or loaded dump truck.
Meanwhile, what can be done to cut the ignition without burning up the module ?? An actuator that pulls a connection apart in the wire leading from the ignition to the electronic module, if one exists ?? Somehow to short out the ignition wire to the spark plug ??
I think RFID is best as well.The RFID is certainly the way to go, I think. It needs to be a stealthy install and damn near foolproof.
What motorcycle is it? I can find a wiring diagram and see what type of CDI or ECU it uses and I will see if I can show you what I mean.Harold in CR said:Thanks Arlo.
I had to go to ebay and look at a CDI ? I'm no motorcycle guy.
I see that a spade connector is what powers the coil. Would you happen to know if that is High voltage, like pack V or super high, like an electronic capacitor feeding the coil ??
IF I rig the actuator to that wire, securely, it should snatch it off that spade connection, correct ??
That would be the easiest way to hook it up, correct ?? It should be located up under the fairing, so, not a simple thing to look for in the panic to steal the ride, correct ??
I belive he is asking about an internal combustion engine.www.recumbents.com said:Experiment with disconnecting one or two of the hall sensor wires. Does the bike still run? Does it run badly enough the the thief will abandon it quickly? If that provides the desired effects, a small switch can be used to crapify the bike.

Harold in CR said:These are mostly CHEEEEEP Chinese motos. Can't even remember the name or spell it, even.
One similar type is Genesis, made in India, China, ??????
I will contact my source and see if he can diagnosis the situation, better.
Thanks Arlo.
Sorry, the Motos are gasoline engine, until some get converted to electric.

I have not done anything with a RFID yet but I really want to... Jeremy works on it here for a EbikeHarold in CR said:So, no actuator needed ?? Just hook up the RFID somehow ??
Sorry to be so dumb. Just grew up with points and condensors. Never needed to get into electronic ignition, until now.
REALLY appreciate the help, Arlo. Thank you
