You could have taken precautionary measures by installing an anti theft bracket. I was rather fortunate, a few weeks after installing one, I noticed 2 long scratches on the bracket. This definately indicated a deliberate attempt was made to try opening my rear seat as well!!

how much u bought urs?including instalation... where u bought it? i think i also wanna install 1.. i smell rats lurkin around my neighbourhood...

cheetah can put

but not much places to fit the alarm...one of the possible places will be the container under the pillion seat

but when alarm sensor put there it's quite difficult to detect shocks/knocks in other parts of the bike...e.g front fairings

The two previous model KR150s that have been sold in New Zealand have become popularwith people looking for a lightweight sports bike for economical commuting and is extremely popular for the burgeoning 150cc Streetstock road racing class. The KR150 has been very successful in this class of low cost competition winning the championship in its first year.

 

The new KRR ZX150 offers even higher quality and more modern styling. In fact the new KRR looks like one of Kawasakis Ninja models. Riding an entry level motorcycle no longer has to be boring. The 148cc 2-stroke engine is similar in design to those used in Kawasaki’s World Championship winning motocross machines and offer plenty of power to keep ahead of the traffic or for

racing around the track.

You should flush it, then replace.

An after market end can, new valves, new carbs, air box along with a new set of brake hose to brake better.

And not to mention set aside $500 just in case u get caught by the boys in white.

I don't use any alarms but I saw a demo between Cheetah & Acumen (If I remember the brand correctly). The cheetah can be activated (ON) , picked up and still didn't sound off!!! What The Fook??!! The other one went off at the slightest touch....

 

Also heard another fella comment how his friend gotten onto his bike (With Cheetah Alarm activated), sat on it, tilted it straight, still it didn't go off until he got off the bike (Because he shook it a little too hard).

Why mix? In fact, my own opinion & practice is I avoid using coolant totally. If my coolant mixture is getting low, I'll just top up with DISTILLED water.

 

If you're ain't cool with my opinion, just flush the entire contents & fill with new coolant mix. A little bit more work now saves you from more future headache.
