No, mine was installed by one of the well know suppliers at the dealers before I picked it up.
A bit of security advice sought from “the collective”...

That’s a good idea, I wish I’d known..
Expensive but I've got a couple of these https://www.litelok.com/products/litelok-x3-moto and one of these https://www.litelok.com/collections/motorcycle-locks/products/litelok-x1-moto through the front, through the back. Where possible secured to another bike or post etc using the third. It's all about layered security and making it as hard as possible so they'll look elsewhere.
I’ve not read every post, so apologies if this has been mentioned before. All the disc lock’s seem to be for the front disc that is easily accessible with an angle grinder. The rear disc is not easily accessible, so try to find a smaller scooter type disc lock that fits onto the rear disc. Still use the other stuff but have a think about a rear disc lock.
I always carry a lightweight bike cover when traveling (not day to day use) as well as that is also supposed to help deter thieves.

on my Ktm ive got a pragmasis chain and pragmasis round lock (or use as a disc lock see comment about round lock not compatible with some bmw discs on link below but might work on a rear disc??)....ive seen videos of bikes stolen by thieves breaking a disk lock by repeatedly hitting with a brick and the metal breaks- I don't think they would have any joy with the round lock
The round lock is tested by Bennetts and they couldn't beat it. It's a weighty thing for something so small and being small/round it could prove tricky to grip without losing a few digits to the angle grinder!
While parked at home (alarmed garage) Ive also got an Oxford boss alarmed disc lock on the back wheel, Oxford ground anchor (with above chain) , and a MoniMoto tracker but reception seems a bit iffy on it so might need to check where ive hidden it is ok.

Tested: Pragmasis RoundLock motorcycle disc lock review
At just £39.99, the Pragmasis RoundLock is one of the toughest disc locks we’ve tested. Could this bargain budget lock be the best option? Full review…

As a fully paid up member of the tree hugging woke community, I can only endorse your suggestion of some ‘special time’ with whatever piece of shit thinks they have a right to help themselves to my stuff.
I have only ever hit one person in my life. 2nd year at secondary school. A 4th year demanded my chocolate biscuits. When I refused, he snatched them and stamped on them.
Maybe I have unresolved ‘issues’?
Whatever. They were my fucking biscuits.

I struggle to control my anger when I see bullies. Bullies deserve retribution. And I'm the man to deliver it. One day, sooner or later.
And for less than £50 that is some very good value. But it does say in his testing that it cannot fit to BMW....on my Ktm ive got a pragmasis chain and pragmasis round lock (or use as a disc lock see comment about round lock not compatible with some bmw discs on link below but might work on a rear disc??)....ive seen videos of bikes stolen by thieves breaking a disk lock by repeatedly hitting with a brick and the metal breaks- I don't think they would have any joy with the round lock
