This is more of a home lock than a travel lock, that being said when I've travelled with it I wrapped it with an old tee shirt and put it in a sissy bar bag. The weight shift was interesting on the first turn. :)
ed: I also have a Kryptonite New York Bicycle Disc Lock which I mentioned earlier but didn't link to. This is what I use for travel around, it has a bright yellow disc lock reminder cord that is visible to you so you don't drive with it on and visible for passers-by so they hopefully passby.
I use a Kryptonite mini D lock - www.amazon.co.uk/Kryptonite-York-Liberty-Disc-Lock/dp/B000GVFLIO
Very solid and heavy little fellow with good security ratings. I have a high-end chain, but don't use it unless in risky situations. Just whack the d lock through the disk - both legs passing through the disk. If I need to replace it, I'll probably get the Pramasis DIB lock - seems equal or better and same price roughly, and Pragmasis is the top name nowadays.
Main thing is, get a proper quality lock. Thieves recognise cheap crap, and they recognise proper kit that's going to cause them exposure and delay. If money's tight, better to put a high quality padlock through the rear sprocket (eg https://www.amazon.co.uk/ABUS-24673-Titalium-Monobloc-Padlock/dp/B00NGOQEY8/) than rely on Chinese pot-metal rubbish.
