LITELOK X1 Saves Motorcycle in Liverpool #73

We recently heard from Terry, who shared their real-life experience of an attempted motorcycle theft — and how their newly purchased LITELOK X1 played a crucial role in stopping it.

“Brilliant Piece of Kit- After less than two weeks from purchasing Litelok X1, it stopped an attempted theft of my motorbike. If you don't have one, you really need to get one, sooner rather than later.”

On 12th July at around 16:30, Terry had parked their 2022 Honda CB500X (valued at around £5,000) outside a Tesco in Liverpool. The bike was secured with two LITELOK X1s on the front and rear wheels.

Then came the moment of truth.

“The bike was parked outside a Tesco in Liverpool, 12th July around 16:30, had the two X1 on front and rear wheels. Two young men wearing face coverings on an bike, stopped next to my bike and began to cut through the X1 on the front wheel but they were chased away by two men, who were standing nearby, the damage to the lock looks superficial, I was told they were about to use a battery operated grinder when chased away.”

Thanks to the fast reaction of two nearby men and the strength of the X1 lock, the thieves were stopped in the tracks. 

The X1 was designed to defend against the very tools would-be thieves rely on, including battery-powered angle grinders. This story proves just how important high-quality security can be.
