Encourage motorcycle manufacturers take more responsible for motorcycle theft.

What the petition asks

it is not easy to lock up a motorcycle on the street or your driveway however if there were more security features built into the bike, it could provide the additional protection required to do so.

Many bikes are only able to be locked through the wheels which can be removed relatively easily. If there was a way to secure the frame on more bikes it would make it a lot more difficult to steal.
Manufacturers could also install trackers and alarms at the construction stage.
Motorcycles can help reduce congestion in cities and have lower emissions than most 4 wheeled vehicles.
The problem is too many people are being put off riding a motorcycle because of the risk of it being stolen.
