yeah ive set a few off but karma got its own back on me the other day. the bike was in the garage with the doors open and my car was on the drive. for some reason i had the bike running and my hands were greasy. i gave it a couple of blips ( just cos i like the noise) and off went the car alarm . needless to say the jacket where the fob for the car is is now in need of dry cleaning ive also had to go round a few door handles with some grimex

Not quite alarm related but I still remember loads of us attending Wayne's funeral on our VTR's and the noise was out of this world, we even went under a few bridges together with some kill switch antics......ah happy (or sad) days!

Cuts off ignition, fills exhaust with unburnt fuel, turn ignition back on = BIG BANG......

5 alarms in the car park at work
Kill switch is great - but not recommended if you have baffles - you can blow them out. Luckily I don't - but I do have stubbies with feck off "growler" tips...
Ooooh yessss!!!

i set off near enough every car, house & business alarm in a 1/2 mile radius as a kid, by placing a empty beer keg on top of a stack of pallets & setting fire to it.
the fire boils up the dregs to superheated steam to ridiculously high pressure, until the base of the keg gives and it is blasted into a low orbit with a satisfying BOOOOM
it became a bit of a craze until it was featured in the local paper... apparently some of the burnt out kegs were found miles away - at that age we didnt realise that what goes up must come down!
most memorable pipe bang on the storm..... on a ride last year, knocked off the killswitch, gave it a fistfull of throttle to load the cans with fuel before flicking the switch back on, only i hadnt knocked the switch off

resulting in a massive 12 o clock power wheelie past a crowded bus stop (my intended victims) - much to their amusement as i struggled to land the front end lol.

Many years ago I managed to destroy a very rusty exhaust on an XT by doing that, god it sounded good afterwards!
