ART 4 or 5 Motorcycle Locks
For motorcycles, a lock must be at least ART 4 certified, and for many insurers, ART 5 is mandatory. For a scooter, ART 3 is often sufficient. Below is an overview of the different categories.
| ART Certification | Application | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ART 1 | Bicycles | Basic protection, suitable only for bicycles. |
| ART 2 | Mopeds and Scooters | Minimum requirement for scooter insurance, protection against opportunistic theft. |
| ART 3 | Heavier Scooters and Light Motorcycles | Extra robust chain or U-lock for better protection. |
| ART 4 | Motorcycles | Sufficient for most insurances, often a sturdy chain or disc brake lock. |
| ART 5 | Motorcycles with High Theft Risk | Highest level of security, often required for expensive motorcycles or parking in public spaces. |
Choosing the Right Type of Motorcycle Lock
When choosing the right motorcycle lock, it is important to consider where and how often you park your motorcycle. We list for you when you can best use each type of lock:
- Chain locks are ideal for long-term parking and when you want to secure your motorcycle to a fixed object.
- Disc brake locks are compact and easy to carry, perfect for short stops, or as extra security.
- U-locks are ideal for security in the city or public places and complement chains and disc brake locks well.
- For extra security, you can opt for a wall anchor or floor anchor at home or at work. Such an anchor is attached to the wall or, for example, your garage floor, allowing you to securely anchor your motorcycle, scooter, or bicycle with a chain.
- Don't forget to purchase a lock holder for easy transport of your lock.
