Over the years, the number of people who own a bike has considerably enlarged. Statistics show that there are around 21.8 million bike sales in India. The depressing fact is that motorbike theft has become so widespread, not just in India, but in different parts of the world. It turns out that, about 1.65 lakh bikes are stolen each year in India alone. Since a thief doesn't need to break into a motorcycle as it is done for a car, motorcycles are more vulnerable to theft than other vehicles. The present day's security offers little in terms of safety for the vehicles. However, some anti-theft devices can serve as both deterrents and theft prevention. The cost of an anti-theft security system is extremely expensive and hence an effective alternative is required. In this paper, an antitheft system is developed to provide communication between the owner and the vehicle. This permits the user remote access to control the vehicle's fuel flow. The proposed system is smart enough to detect trusted owners.
