I've decided to get another Scorpio alarm for my FZ. I've used a Scorpio on my last four bikes. It served me well and saved my 2004 Superglide from being stolen in the middle of the night in Winslow, Arizona. I was awakened about 2:00 a.m. when the remote went nuts and when I got to the motel window I saw a couple jokers running for their lives jump into their pickup that was parked a few feet from my bike. There is no doubt in my mind that they intended to take my "Glide" with them but the siren took them by surprise and they thought better about it and took off. When I traded the Superglide I put it on a 2006 VRSCD and then an M109R and after that a DL650 where it died last year (wouldn't stop alarming). The newest Scorpio, the SR-i900 is about $400 but if I get as much use out of it as I did my i300, it will be well-spent. I've heard some say that they don't worry about their bike being stolen because they have insurance. There is some substance to that argument, but when you are 2000 miles from home, and alone, who's going to get you back home. I make at least one long trip every year and in a lot of cases I'm traveling alone. Sometimes I'm in Metroplitan areas and sometimes I'm so far out in the boonies the next phone or cell tower is 100 miles away. I'm not such a good walker any more if my wheels get stolen. A good alarm is an investment and usually will cut your insurance a bit.
By the way, Scorpio has a wiring harness for darned near every bike including the FZ1. No need to chop up your wiring harness.
