I'm looking to order a Xena Disk lock for the front wheel on the ST. I currently not around my bike and curious if anyone knows what size to buy? I'll be getting the one with an alarm, as well.

Here's a picture of my one on the disk. There's just enough room for the lock and a reminder cable if you have one and it's not too thick.

I haven't used mine in a long time as the bike is in a garage at home, and a secure indoor garage at work, but from what I remember the alarm takes a fair amount of movement for it to go off so you don't get false alarms.

I have the XX10. I've not tried it on my ST yet, however it fitted the one of the discs (can't remember which) of my GS. I couldn't tell you if the XX10 will fit the ST without trying.

I have some comments re sensitivity. Xena alarmed disc locks are known to have sensitivity issues. According to online research they have improved their game significantly however. I read that the position on the disc can have an effect on the sensitivity, which I found amusing, however I too found the alarm was going off for the hell of it way more when locked at the top part of the disc. Users commented that locking it to the bottom of the disc is far better and reduces false alarms. Surprisingly (and oddly) this is true....

Wow, that is interesting. Maybe if the thieves turn the lock to the downside and then steal the bike, they'll be successful.

Or even turn the bike upside down and carry it away

I checked just now, the xx10 fits the front rotor....
