If you buy new key FOB (proximity FOB), it has to be programmed by a dealer before it will work (at least for touring models)
Once programmed, can change codes on your own per owner's manual (Table 27 in Touring Models manual)
Just went thru this on mine. Dealer didn't charge for the programming (Mike's Harley, Groton, CT). Took less than 10 minutes and they did it as a drop in on a Saturday afternoon

Or it, the owners manual, will describe how to check what the current code is. Of course that will require having a key. At least it, the method to determine the code, is in my owners manual. The manual also shows the method to change the code to a different one.

My Street Bob came equipped with the alarm system but I asked the dealer not to enable it. If/when I go to sell the Bob, I can have the dealer enable it if the new wants it. Personally, I think the system is more hassle than it's worth for those bikes that still require a key in the ignition to run.
I'm just sayin'....

Yea, and not here ! I bet 80%+ of new bike buyers never bother to learn it or change it. May as well tell all the thieves out there how to steal your bike. They now have 3 basic codes to choose from at least !

Agreed. If someone wanted to learn how to steal H-Ds he would post exactly this. Even if its genuine, having this posted here is not a good idea.
