Locks/chains etc. are worthless. As they say, locks just keep the honest thief out. I know several people, that have had motorcycles and ATV's stolen that where inside a locked building and pad locked inside the building. A grinder with a cutoff wheel is through that in <20 seconds.

Locks definitely can give you a false sense of security. I had one of these locks on a boat trailer once, and ended up loosing the key. With a hacksaw it took about a minute to cut it off. I know it's not the most hard core lock out there, but it's one of the more common ones.
