arley-Davidson does it, so why shouldn’t you? A top-quality alarm system is an easy sale when it’s figured right into the purchase of a bike or factored in as part of the build in a custom. Scorpio has everything needed to install that OE-quality security on a bike that didn’t come with a system onboard, too. American Iron Horse? Scorpio has systems for all of them from ‘96 on. Big Dog is covered, too, and so are the Indian Scouts, Indian Sprints, Indian Chiefs and all models of the Victory. OEM connector kits make all these installations clean and simple, plugging directly into the factory connectors on the bike. And for those one-off customs, whether you’re building two of them or two hundred, you can have genuine Scorpio security there, too. There’s a Universal Connector Kit making installation a snap on any motorcycle; step-by-step instructions describe the exact location and color code for each wire, and there are only three to worry about.
     Since 1989 Aritronix/Scorpio has been the number one name when it comes to electronic security products for motorcycles. The list of “firsts” from Scorpio could fill a page. It includes the first dual-axis digital impact and inclination sensing mechanism, the first FM 2-way data transmission link between the motorcycle and its owner and the first to utilize Loctite® encapsulation and potting to waterproof the system, making it stronger, more rugged and better able to withstand the rigors of motorcycle life. Everything Scorpio makes is manufactured and certified to OE standards and the manufacturing facility is ISO9001 certified. All the designers and product engineers are bikers, too. What they make always meets and exceeds the needs of a real-world motorcyclist. It’s little wonder why Aritronix/Scorpio is the security-system supplier to the motorcycle manufacturers themselves and why they’ll work so well in all of the “American alternative” applications.
     There’s nothing compromised about any of these add-on Scorpio security systems. They are, in fact, every bit the equal of an OE installation. Better in some respects, with even more features and functions and Scorpio should know because this is the company supplying the OEs. These systems are compact, about the size of a cell phone, yet inside that miniature module there’s a built-in 125dB multi-tone siren with programmable tones, there’s two-way FM security capable of sending and receiving data from up to a half-mile away and for the actual motion detector there’s a built-in Analog Devices ADXL202 accelerometer. This dual-axis digital sensing microprocessor measures both dynamic acceleration (vibration) and static acceleration (gravity) and the design allows the onboard sensor to be placed in any position or mounting angle with no adjustments ever required. Scorpio’s patented polyurethane encapsulating process hermetically seals all this against vibration, heat or cold and high water pressure. The system even works underwater up to 10-feet deep, although if that’s where a missing bike is located, there are other problems to worry about!
     Of course, with a Scorpio security system installed there’s no reason for a bike to go missing in the first place. The system’s extra small handheld transceiver incorporates an LCD display confirming all commands and alarm triggers, there are easy to understand icons and text messages and that FM technology provides exceptional range and penetration, even into shopping malls and underground parking garages. This is genuine OE-quality security. It installs easily on virtually any bike and it’s available right now through Drag Specialties. Do you know where your motorcycle is right now? With a Scorpio security system you will. Make it part of the deal, right up front.



Suggest a Scorpio Alarm System with every bike sale and you can save your customers a lot of trouble and money. A motorcycle is a big investment that needs to be protected, and Scorpio’s high tech alarms can help to do that. Easy to use and install, your customers will thank you for suggesting Scorpio.
