Hi everybody!
How can I prevent my E-motorcycle removable battery from being stolen?
Do you know how the E-bike companies tackle this problem?

[BrianTRice@gmail.com]

There is no market for stolen batteries. I don't know why you would expect one to exist. I don't think there have been theft reports of any kind yet. I don't even lock my Zero tank bag, because no one would even guess it exists.

We're still at a very early adoption phase where some motorcyclists have read about electric bikes but haven't tried one.

I agree.  What crook would even know where the batteries were located, how to remove them from the bike and what to do with them if they did remove them.  It is nothing to worry about.

Many electric cycle offerings actually have a keyed-lock for locking the removable battery in the bike.
If you're concerned with theft occurring, then some form of locking scenario would be a deterrent, so choose a model from a manufacturer that offers this.
