Fascinating thread with some good info on how to protect your bike.

A sample of his comments:
Never seen that before, sounds like they were determined. The craziest thing I remember someone doing with a burly lock was turning some sort of cutting torch into a backpack of sorts that looked like a scuba tank. The parking lot was freshly laid asphalt and all he succeeded in doing was setting the parking lot on fire. I hope no one knows that one anymore. Too good not to share.
Down in the thread, some guy asks him about whether he should chain up an '82 XS400. The guy's reply:
Don't get mad at me if something happens, but I think that bike will be fine unless it's a really sharp cafe or bobber.
