Dude at Corporate said that the factory sets a code with the digital technician when they marry the Security module to the ECM and the Key fobs to the TSSM, HFSM or BCM.
The code for my bike was 12345 and the PDI tech never changed it - I was there.
However, if you buy the security option at the dealer and have it installed at the dealer - they do all of this for you during installation - including setting a random code if you don't ask for a specific one.
Things I was told and experienced anyway... I know for fact my PDI tech did not set a random code and my code was 12345 just as the Corporate dude told me it would be. YMMV....
I only mention all of this in case someone ends up in the same situation as I did. Try 12345 or 11111 apparently. If it doesn't work, least you tried

I have been working at a Harley dealership for over 20 years and have been programing key fobs since Harley first came out with the security system.If a code was programed in a bike it was a bike that was traded to them from another dealer.Once more, the security is not programmed at the factory,it is done at the dealership.

Only the digits 1 thru 9
When I picked up my Street Glide new, it wasn't any of the 3 numbers you listed either.
The dealer did make sure to show me the card in the back of the owners manual, where they had written the code they set.

Just because I'm curious, and since you are in the know, how do they start the bikes and run them - on their little dyno at the factory - that have security already installed on them coming right off the line?
Looks like just having the Security module installed (and not initalized) does not disable the vehicle right away until later when you set it up during PDI or something.
Do you know they do that? Master key or something?

You should also practice starting the scooter with the code.

You could probably write it on the tank and most people can not unlock it. Just make it 1 1 1 1 1 . That way you can just rock the blinker right left ... If a crook is smart enough to figure that out, he will just figure another way. And that way, at least you will be able to unlock it if you remember which way to turn the switch.
