I'm sure almost all of you already knew this but I just learned that I can lock the steering head in TWO directions! ha

News to me too, and a useful one some times depending on where you park! Thanks.

Looks better with the head turned right but it feels somewhat unstable. It feels safer parked the traditional way, for me anyway.

I always thought a locked steering head made it easier for two people to pick the bike up and toss it in a van.

but more difficult for one to roll it away.............

I have considered that, but like somebody else says.. rolling it away would be easier.

most bike thieves can break the steering lock easily and many of them know how to hot wire some models of bikes way too easily. I don't know how stealable the SF is but hopefully it's more difficult than the average bike.
