How To Track Your Vehicle on the Cheap | Maximum PC

Gonna do this with the 500 or any other bike i get.

 

meh, don't feel like reading all that, I stopped after I read "schmoejack"...

I'll just bet that somehow your bike will get stolen, the tracker will not function properly, you'll post it here and receive a bunch of shit over it.

/thread?

 

i doubt it, it's basically telling you how to set up a cell phone for tracking, so that YOU can view it on a real time map and where it is at all times.

you're attempt to be clever, failed.

 

this is old news...people have been doing this for some time...

but i believe the difference between this and lojack...is lojack will actually lower your insurance...and has some form of warranty where if your shit gets stolen and they cant recover it...they reimburse you somehow

 

This is very true. Plus if I stole a bike and found a phone in it I would look for the date of last call placed. If it has not been within 24 hours that shit would be tossed back in your front yard. You can also tell if a bike has lojack taking it. It very easy to know if that sticker is bullshit or not!! Google it it will tell you how and it is not that hard. I only know because a security guy work researched before he bought his new car.

 

Yeah, what Pete said. This is as old as the internet. As awesome as it'd be to grab my gun and get my own shit back, there's not very many hiding spots on a bike for an old 90's size phone to hide that won't be found within 5 minutes of stripping it. And if my bike get's stolen, that's pretty much what will happen to it.

 

airbox?? underside of gas tank...inside ur seat etc. there's plenty of hiding spots. And granted it's something that has been done for a while. It's atleast a bike related post.

 

Everything you named is the first stuff you take off when you start stripping a bike. They probably won't find it and turn it off, smash it, throw it in a lake. If I was taking apart I bike I stole and found it I'd do your ass Conair style and throw it in a garbage truck or something. You can follow that shit to your local landfill and start digging haha.

 

that's the thing tho...it'll have sat for an hour or 2 at a certain location til u found it....and with the link and program ilisted u can have progress of where it was at that time. it shows u where it went and the exact course it took.
