Called my local dealer and he said the install will take them about 2 hours to do (a $190 job). I've been reading that it's not that difficult to DIY, just need the dealer to activate the fobs. Are they trying to pull something?

 

Depends on where the TSM/TSSM is located on your model of motorcycle. Some models require pulling the rear wheel to get to where the TSM/TSSM is located. See your Field Service Manual for the location and servicing of these parts. The dealer will also need to activate the security system and the fobs using the Digital Tec.

 

It's fairly easy to install the unit and perform the "password learn" which will allow you to ride the bike to the dealer for them to marry the FOB's to your system.

You have quite a few posts regarding this topic! Do you know if I'd have to remove the rear wheel to get to the TSM?

 

On a softail yes.

 

My Nightrain with the 200 rear tire would be very similar to your Breakout with 240 rear tire - I was able to remove the plastic cover in front of the rear wheel and install the TSSM without taking the wheel off, so I suggest that you give that a try.

 

Okay I'll check it out and see what happens. Thanks for the links. I'll see if I can make it work following the instructions.
