    indeed, i have heard of similar things for cars, you hide them and wire them into the electrics so there always charged. ud have to top it up regularly, but you can then ping it and it will tell you exact gps location

    The text ones/ones that make use of a sim card are crap as they are only accurate to about a quarter mile (useless in built up areas) and the proper gps ones/monitored ones that are most accurate nearly always need a subscription which can easily cost more than your bikes worth over some months or years..

    Prevention is alot better than cure in this case
