Disc lock for rear end?

[Hartley]

Im after a disc lock that fits the rear disk on a 1250 GSA or GS with spoked wheels, specifically for the spokes wheels due to clearance being different to alloy wheels.
This is only to be used as supplementary security device so doesn’t need to be sold secured nuclear bomb proof.
I’ve tried the handful I have accumulated over the years but none fit.
Probably will need to go through one of the vent holes.
Can anyone one steer me to one that fits?

I have a standard long padlock. Sprayed black. I use it to lock my lid around the mirror if stopping for a coffee but it also doubles up as an extra lock for the rear disc.

My theory is a scrote could grind off the front disc lock with care and not set off the alarm.

Then try and move the bike, come to an unexpected stop, alarm going by now. Think it's in gear, faff trying to find neutral and lost a lot of time before the penny drops

In what way will that stop them lifting your bike in to a van?

I did state that this is a “supplementary security device”
The van threat is taken care of by a
couple of members of the Special Air Service and an Apache gunship providing air support.

Sorry , it’s just an additional measure to make it a bit more of a ball ache than the next bike.

You should put a pound of butter in your fridge. Better than the Apache, by all accounts.

Two blokes lifting one end of the bike and wheeling in a van is pretty easy. Lifting a bike with both wheels off the ground is harder, you need a fair bit of muscle.

Obviously an angle grinder makes it easier but noisier. A lock on the back disk is only going to be weak because you can get much on there. Make it harder to spot and you slow them down a bit.

Short of a BIG cut resistant chain to a post what more can you do if away from home.

According to the motorcycle security subsection of UKGSer, a spanner and padlock is the latest ‘Must do’ method.

If anyone else is actually interested in a lock for the rear disc I’ve found one.

Its a tiny little thing which isn’t going to stop anyone lifting the bike and sticking it in a van but is another thing to overcome if the scrotes use the most common method of pushing the bike away.
Another “layer” for 17 quid.
