Customer Reviews: Gorilla Automotive 7017 Motorcycle Alarm with 2-Way Paging System

This review is from: Gorilla Automotive 7017 Motorcycle Alarm with 2-Way Paging System (Automotive) If you follow the directions closely, the installation should go fine. I spent more time trying to figure out where to locate the alarm than the actual installation took. Be sure to have all the remotes ready when the system is initially powered on so you can get them programmed on the first try. Once installed, I noticed that the motion sensor alarm was chirping several times during each cool-down period after I rode the bike and set the alarm. Not sure if this is typical of other users, but I ended up lowering the sensitivity to the middle of the seven step range as described in the directions. This seems to help prevent the inadvertent alarms but it does take a much stronger shake to get the alarm to go off now. Probably need to raise the sensitivity a notch or two. The range on the pager is probably more like a few hundred feet if you’re in a building next to the motorcycle. In an open area with scattered buildings it might be close to a quarter mile. The one feature I’d really like to see them add is a battery backup. Other than that I think it’s a great product, especially at this price point, and would readily recommend it to others.
