GPS/GSM Theft Tracking

[BanditKing]

Frankly, having the Busa stolen once was enough.

I've been looking into tracking devices/systems. I understand straight GPS is no good, because of limitations to line of sight/cover, etc.

It's my understanding that the systems which also use GSM networks (cell phones) are better because of the better reception allows trangulation in buildings/vehicles/anywhere you can use a cell phone.

I've heard of Phontom Tracking (www.phantomtracking.com) and Talon's MikBike (www.talonalarms.com/mibike)

Does anybody here use or have experience with these or similar products?

somewhere on here is a right up using an old cell phone, it will give a way of tracking if something happens to the bike.

I do not know much about them but It makes sense that GSM would work better if it was well hidden with a battery back up. But I would still think that you would have to be right on top of the actual theft. Good luck hope you figure soemthing out.
