They explained that it's a modular system so can be upgraded to included additional features such as proximity sensors, GPS tracker etc. I called the Hawk customer service team who were very patient and helpful. There were a couple of spare leads whose colours weren't mentioned in the fitting instructions. So one end snaps into the short lead from the alarm control box and the other end goes to this connector on the left hand side of the bike just ahead of the tool kit. If anything the extra loom is a little too long at about 40cm but this would offer greater flexibility as to where to site the main control box The 'Triumph' bit shown below however it's just an extension to the alarm loom with the required white Triumph connector at the other end. The full specification is shown on the Hawk website so I'm not going to repeat it all here.
In addition there are the usual fitting & operating instructions plus a warning sticker and a lanyard. The Triumph version of the Hawk alarm costs £60 including UK postage. However if I can fit these things then you can take is read that it's a pretty simple job. I'd like to point out that I have no connection with Hawk Alarms and I'm also no mechanic - so please use your own judgement when fitting alarms. Well I did fit one and I'm very pleased with the results so I thought I'd share my experiences on this and other items I've fitted.over the next weeks I got absolutely no feedback apart from other members asking me for my feedback if I fitted one. I put out some feelers on Triumph forums to see if anyone had tried the Hawk alarm which is offered with a Triumph specific wiring harness. I wanted to fit an alarm but didn't fancy paying the dealer the thick end of £400 for a Triumph branded Meta alarm. I took full advantage of the recent snow & salt fest riding lull to fit a few 'essential' accessories to my 2018 model year bike. I've had my new Tiger 800 for a month now and love it.
