John you're right on, all you have to do is make yours more difficult to get at than the next one. We had a place at Myrtle Beach for years and never had a problem, my neighbors were not as lucky. I had dead bolts on the doors and they didn't.

When staying at a Hotel/Motel I usually will ask management permission to park in front so the Trike can be seen from the registration desk.
Use a all weather cover , the TG is a high theft item, if that is what you ride I would look for lodging on the 1st floor with a parking spot in front of your room. I ride a wing which is not as high of a theft item but still follow the above advise.
Those of you who travel a lot and stay in motels along the way, how do you secure the trike at night - especially if you also have a trailer. Is a cover a good idea? I have many questions as I am getting close to buying a trike. One of my favorites so far is an 04 Lehman conversion with a matching trailer. The trike is located in another state and would mean a long ride home.

I do like to throw a cover over the trike. Not only keeps hands off the trike, it also keeps off the rain, dew, bird residue and such off your ride. Well worth the minor hassle with the cover. I have a full cover, but am thinking of getting a half cover for non-rain times. Still keeps the front, cockpit, passenger area and trunk covered. The bottom half and the fenders are exposed, but I don't sit on those bits.
+1 on the cover. Otherwise the kiddies think it's a climb on toy and their moron parents don't (or won't) stop 'em. Under a cover it's outta sight/outt mind.
That, and a good lock.
