Cool, I went with 6'...
The cable is a really a good size, even a bolt cutter would slow it down a bit I suspect
Overall the size seemed more than fair, even for my little tank bag only accommodations
It was weird making a lock combination out of a word, as the dials are letters not numbers

I barely made it home last night without getting soaked. Was sprinkling when I left work. Light rain as I pulled in my driveway. Five minutes with a microfiber and detail spray, and it still looks great.

Just got a Speedohealer for the VFR. Tired of constantly calculating the correct speed in my head. Figure the speedometer is optimistic by close to 10%.
