Adding the siren to an existing, activated security system is a DIY. Adding the security module requires the dealer to "marry" the fobs through a quick flash process. Some have reported having the flash done for free by negotiating with the dealer at the time of module purchase. Most reported (me included) that the dealer charged 1/2 hour labor to do the flash. Hope that helps.

Does the "full" security offering provide any alarm or does the system only disable the bike when someone tries to take it?

Only the turn signals flash and the ignition, fuel pump, and starter are disabled with the security, you have to add the optional siren if you want noise.
If this is the 15 Road Glide Custom (seen in another post) didn't it come with fobs? If so it already has "security". If you're wanting to just add the siren and possibly a pager (the two items Squirrelsnest posted links to), that is absolutely a DYI thing and no dealer flash required.
My 2015 is the base custom model, Security was an option. I want to add the smart security with fobs. I will guess that it will take a dealer flash to activate, but am looking to confirm that.
Not sure why my signature with my bike info isn’t showing up on my original post.

Your bike didn’t come with fobs or the factory security system?

Yes, you are correct. Your bike is "security ready" but it requires the module and a dealer flash to program the fobs. The module alone will give you flashing turn signals and ignition cut-off but you'll need to add the siren if you want sound as well.
