Why does a motorcycle parked in Lyon need a GPS tracker?
Because between the Presqu'île, the riverbanks and the residential buildings of the metropolitan area, a motorcycle in Lyon spends its nights outside or in a shared car park, and that is precisely where everything plays out. Thieves do not start the motorcycle: they lift it, load it into a van, then leave it in a hideout while they check that it is not connected. A mechanical lock delays the operation, it does not warn you.
A real-time GPS tracker turns that scenario around. According to the Observatoire GeoRide du Vol de Moto en France 2026 (GeoRide's study of motorcycle theft in France), in 51.7% of recorded attempts, the alert received on the phone was enough: the motorcycle was never moved. One motorcycle in two: a theft avoided. Conversely, without a tracker, only 24.3% of stolen two-wheelers are recovered according to the 2025 Barometer from GIE Argos (the French insurers' vehicle security body), cited by the Observatory.
