I’ve kept a chain around both of my scooters’ stems for the years I’ve been riding each of them and have not had a problem yet. Two things to note: I’m not in NYC and I keep it racked in high visibility areas in daylight. Honestly with the price of bikes a 1200 scooter with a thick chain isn’t worth the trouble me thinks.
Yea but like the other guy said, there’s nothing to chain it to. I also live in suburbia and have been looking at an e-bike for groceries and other short errands but there are no bike racks at the stores for me to rack and chain it. Best thing I can do is chain it to a signpost I guess
Rolling it through the store until they install bike racks is a great passive aggressive approach.
One place I lived was close to a semi-suburan mall. Despite being on a major intra-city bike lane, there was a single bike rack tucked in the delivery area.
I also learned from my new neighbor that you can just install bike racks wherever you want. He just buys the pole like ones and installs them wherever he wants parking.

Fucking genius. I 100% believe it would work and that nobody would ever even question it as long as you threw on a high vis vest while installing them
