Cheetah alarm

Discussion in 'Australian Motorcycles' started by Jarmo Kauppila, Jan 10, 2004.

  1. Hi,

    I'm going to buy Cheetah CHC-WPTX motorbike alarm and now I'm interesting
    have somebody experience of this alarm. Is this quite good device or waste I
    my money.

    I just installed one on my bike and it works like dream, all the features or
    the alarm work fine and with a wiring diagram should take no more than a
    couple of hour at most.


    Cheers

    You wake up screaming in the middle of the night?

    Or does it make a noise like Clem 'dreaming'.

    I chucked that thing years ago. Now I rely on proximity and vigilance.

    If it wasn't for responsible citizens like Jarmo, this
    country would be overrun by the Cheetah Menace.

    Alarmed, not alert!

  9. nar mine wasn't a cheep xena rip off. (did yours do that lalalaalla thing
    when it went off?)

    mines a vector brand, that actually looks cool, quite a good sized, shiny
    chrome disc lock, has all the works such as a nylon pouch, and the alarm
    too, for the price of a brand disc lock.. not that loud but its enough for
    me to run out with a shot gun everytime it goes off..

    problem is you cant adjust its sensitivity, use to go off when the bike
    cover blows against it, doesn't do that on the cbr.

    I just use it when going to the super market or what not..

    cheerio

    Hello Cam.

    Dunno when, I've been meaning to get down there for ages (like the last
    six months of last year), but it didnt really happen. I'm in the
    process of moving house ATM, but hopefully once the dust settles on that
    I'll have some pocket money to come and play. The councilling and beers
    sound very appealing, so rest assured I'll drop you a line next time I'm
    heading down that way. My goal is to have the RZ in tow so you can show
    me the way around EC.

    Could have had a great deal of fun with it!

    Cheers
