Lock it UP!
zOU, I actually read the below posts while I was trying to figure out how to mount a dock lock and a U lock in an easily accessible place on the XTZ and not interfere with myself or the pillion. Attached is a pic of the U lock mounted to the bike with some aftermarket screw clamps suited for the task. The disc lock was a little bit tricky. I opted for the home made approach drilling and hacksawing a heavy shelving bracket (still powder coated white in the picture) with two tough fibre plumbing washers sanded down to the right thickness so the disc lock will not rattle around. I would some PVC tape on the frame so it will rest in place with it's own weight. The mounting bolt on the pillion peg mount was replaced with a longer one to allow for the thick metal of the mount. I am pleased to say nothing rattles or gets in the way!
