Nate on this forumjust had his bike nicked and I am sure it has happened to others so I thought i would ask about simple GPS trackers and what anyone knows of them. Did a quick Google and found some, varying from $150 upwards, many made in China! Seems you can get them so you press a button or call them and they tell your mobile phone where they are but the cheaper ones only have a few days battery life and the dearer ones use a pay by the month service which is a bit much for me.

Anyone use them or have experience of them in other fields? Probably best if they work off the 12v system if needed but have a back up battery. I know some tell you when they leave a designated zone (ie get pinched from your yard) and that sounds like a good idea but is the higher end system so I reckon something that can sit in the 'bike and be activated by remote would be good enough, then you can home in on it?
