Call up your insurance man, get full coverage and tell them you want to waive the liability. I pay $70 a year and don't worry any more about someone stealing it.

My wife's uncle just recently had an ATV stolen from his barn. The "prick" had to sneak past his house &vehicles, and somehow sneak his way thru a yard full of dogs. None of the dogs barked, so the owner never was alarmed to any wrong doing.His arsenal of firearms and night-vision gadgets didn'tsecure his belongingsthat night.
I've got guns too but they only work if you know when to use em.
Use insurance, that's what it's for.

When you park it leave it in gear 1st or 2nd. Evan if they cut the locks with out the ih=gnitinon on they can't shift it to neautral where it rolls easily. That's with my honda any way, it is a manual. i don't know about automatics. If they cut my cable and get it into neautral and getawy, well maybe they deserve it.

Dig a triangular trench around it with concertina wire on both sides of it. Fill the trench with alligators from the New York City sewer system. Stake down the concertina. Set up a .50 Caliber MG position somewhere in the middle just above the ATV. Set up trip flares on the outside and inside of the perimeter and map their positions. Get a crew of old Vietnam Vets like myself who still have the jitters and 1000 yard stare to man the positions. You will need around the clock crews because us old fellas need our nap time! Or like the man said, "get some insurance and don't worry about it".

Sleep on it with a12ga.All jokes aside I use big logging chains and American Security locks.I chain them around big pines trees. At home they are kept in a garage which also has a ADT alarm system.Ihave them chained down while transporting.I used to leave them chained in Georgia during hunting season to avoid bringing them back and forth.My new Honda 680 will come home when I do from now on.To biga gambleto leave locked around a tree.I feel safer burning more gas pulling the trailer home each trip.

I contacted my insurance agent about insuring our 06Honda's.(State Farm).The TRX 680 FA 279.00 and the wife's TRX 350 is 189.00 for a full year's coverage. That's without Liability.Quite abit higher then what TimberCreek was quoted.
