I have a Scorpio SR500i on the 675. Also got the immobiliser option. Quite happy with the alarm, it functions quite well. The perimeter sensor is pretty good, though you have to be careful to set it low enough that pedestrians don't trigger it hahaa.... Nice and loud too! But you can arm it with or with the proximity sensor active which is convenient.

I'm an electronics engineer, and know this type of electronics well. It's definitely a quality product. The only thing I don't like about it is the current consumption. It's on the high side, and very high with the proximity sensor. I measured it accuracy using an oscilloscope to take the readings. I always use a battery tender when at home, so doesn't bother me. But I wouldn't leave it arm with the proximity sensor for a couple of weeks.

If a thief wants your bike, they'll take it. But if you make it hard enough or impede the ability of the thieves, then you have a better chance of them leaving it and finding another bike to swipe.
