Let’s face it; if you enjoy riding on the open road and appreciate your bike, you surely don’t want to part with it. Unlike cars or trucks, most stolen motorcycles are never recovered. Have you heard the story of the recovered stolen bikes … minus engine, tires, and added goodies? How about the story where the insurance company will not pay for the aftermarket parts on the bike? There are several antitheft protection units on the market for you to choose, but how many of them track your bike in real time? Real time tracking means your bike is communicating with a satellite tracking system 24/7, and transmitting to you the exact location of the bike. Now ask yourself how you can gain peace of mind – knowing your bike is safe? Guard My Ride GPS! Guard My Ride GPS is a new GPS powered antitheft protection unit for your bike, ATV, or watercraft.
More than 30,000 motorcycle theft reports are filed each year in the United States and Canada, resulting in millions of dollars in insured losses. Motorcycle thieves are very resourceful and will use every part for resale or reconstruction into another cycle. Motorcycle parts, including frames, can be more easily altered, reused and camouflaged than car or truck parts. This results in a lower recovery rate for stolen cycles than vehicles: approximately 25-30 percent vs. 60-65 percent. Higher-end motorcycles are also highly sought-after luxury items in foreign countries, fostering a lucrative export market for stolen cycles. (National Insurance Crime Bureau)
Guard My Ride GPS is the most effective way to keep an eye on your bike. It is easy to install (using a two wire – no cut set up) and easy to hide. The unit utilizes Skypatrol, a leading manufacturer and distributor of GPS-based vehicle tracking and monitoring solutions, to communicate with your cell phone or computer every time the unit senses Motion, Parked, Tracking or Battery SOS disconnect. “The best way to communicate with Guard My Ride GPS is to have an e-mail sent to your computer; cell phone carriers charge for SMS (short message service) messages, which can become costly” said Guard My Ride GPS, Partner Michael Scott. If the bike is in motion there will be a message sent every 5 minutes that it is in motion. When the bike is stationary for 90 seconds (engine not running) the unit powers down, to a hibernation mode waiting for motion to be detected. Guard My Ride GPS has:
• Cellular GPS alerts and e-mail notifications 24×7
• Proactive Real Time North American coverage
• Two wire no cut quick installation, No external antennas
• Weather and water proof. Built for Power Sports
• Low power draw – less than 2 milivolts
• 5-minute tracking across North America
• 1-Minute SOS tracking signal with 9-hour battery back up
• No external antennas small form factor; easy to hide
• Real time Internet and cellular tracking with mapping
• Geo fencing to tell you when the bike comes or goes from a geographic boundary area
• 3-year warranty
Excluding having peace of mind knowing your bike is safe from the average thief, Guard My Ride GPS will record your journeys on the road—via Google Earth. Log on to your Guard My Ride GPS account (http://www.guardmyridegps.com/), track your journey, and watch the places you’ve traveled in 3-D. How cool is that? An added feature to having a real time tracking unit – you can track how fast the motorcycle was going. If you have a young rider living at home you can note where the bike has been and how fast it was traveling … a nice gift for minors, who happen to be motorcycle enthusiasts!
We stock over 300 motorcycles— Indian, Kawasaki, Triumph and Victory. We use Guard My Ride GPS for our motorcycles, and I suggest you do the same for your investment.
GM Wes Harris, St. Pete Powersports
There are a few details to know about the Guard My Ride GPS unit. The unit will not connect to the horn on your motorcycle, or work as a kill switch to the CPU. It is a low voltage device; therefore connecting to the horn or CPU will drain the battery. The motion sensor is a triple sensor which measures movement when the kickstand is lifted or if the bike is moved, but loud pipes or a pack of loud bikes will not trip the sensor indicating movement. Guard My Ride GPS is a GPS unit, which means there is a monthly service fee (approximately $10 monthly), but the first year of service is on Guard My Ride GPS is included. A side note: St. Pete Powersports (http://www.stpetepowersports.com/) will cover the second year when you buy a motorcycle with a Guard My Ride GPS unit installed from them.
Safeguarding your motorcycle and the aftermarket parts on it is important – so is knowing your significant other is on schedule and safe while he or she is out on the road … sometimes the cell phone signal is weak, or the battery is dead. Guard My Ride GPS is the answer to easing your motorcycle security anxieties. It’s easy to install, small enough to hide, and tracks your motorcycle 24/7. The Guard My Ride GPS unit will perform four main functions: Alert, Track, Locate and Recover your stolen motorcycle. When discussing antitheft devices for your two-wheeled, ATV, or watercraft investment, Guard My Ride GPS is a unit worth inquiring into – and then purchasing. Log onto http://www.guardmyridegps.com/ to learn more about the unit, or stop by St. Pete Powersports 555 34th Street S. in St. Petersburg to purchase or install your unit.
Program Runs Through Jan. 31, 2010 at Participating Dealers
Milwaukee (January 5, 2010) –Harley-Davidson invites competitive riders to trade in their non-Harley-Davidson motorcycles for a new untitled Harley-Davidson motorcycle. As an added incentive, customers who trade-in an eligible competitive motorcycle toward the purchase of an eligible Harley-Davidson® motorcycle by January 31, 2010, will receive the dealer-negotiated trade-in value plus $500 towards the final purchase price.
“It’s all about sharing the Harley-Davidson experience with a discriminating audience and earning the opportunity to welcome new riders into the family,” said Dino Bernacchi, Harley-Davidson Advertising and Promotions Director. “Currently one-in-four sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles are to competitive brand riders, but there may be some riders out there who don’t realize that nearly all Harley-Davidson dealers welcome competitive brand trade-ins, so we are spreading the word through this promotion and sweetening the deal to help get them on the ride of their dreams.”
For more details about the competitive trade-in promotion, visit your local Harley-Davidson dealer or log onto h-d.com/trade-in.

The MMA is scheduled to meet with Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) Registrar Rachael Kaprielian and Massachusetts Secretary of Transportation Jeffrey Mullan on Monday, January 11, 2010 to discuss the misappropriated Motorcycle Safety Fund monies.
The RMV reported 182,215 motorcycles registered through September 2009. According to MMA calculations there should have been $364,430 deposited into the Safety Fund Account ($2.00 per registered motorcycle). Since there was
only $177,801 initially deposited, $12,157 was removed, AND another $50,000 was also removed for other purposes, the MMA is fighting to get $248,786 added back to this fund and demand we receive a full accounting of the monies already stolen from this fund.
M.G.L. Chapter 90, Section 34 specifically states, “$2 from each motorcycle registration fee shall be paid by the registrar or by the person collecting the registration fee into the General Fund and shall be appropriated solely for the purpose of promoting and advancing motorcycle safety.”
To repeat: By Law, $364,430 should have been put into the Motorcycle Safety Fund to be used solely for safety and awareness.
Please send a WRITTEN LETTER to RMV Registrar Kaprielian, MASSDOT Secretary Jeffrey Mullan, and Governor Deval Patrick TODAY expressing your feelings regarding the raiding of YOUR Safety Fund. The addresses are at the end of this message and a sample letter is available on the MMA’s Web Site.
For MAXIMUM IMPACT, we need your letters to get there BEFORE our meeting!
Please act today! For further information and details, please check the
