thanks for the response guys,

The airtag looks promising!

Realizing any lock can be defeated, i am looking for recommendations for what locks would be better/more secure than others. not thinking an overnight scenario, more popping into a convenience store, or riding to the supermarket to get groceries, or maybe stopping somewhere to grab a bite and/or beer after a ride....so i guess portability would also be a consideration.

Is there a brand of lock that is superior to any others?...i figure if im gonna spend $$$$ on a bike i better fork out $$ to secure it.

thanks again!
