Default 2005 fxsti
Hello all, I am new to the site and a new harley owner and very green, I have just bought a 2005 fxsti and i know nothing about it, I have no handbook just a haynes manual, I want to put it into transport mode but cannot find on the internet how to do it, the previous owner told me that it is done on the key fob, all the videos on u tube show it on the ignition switch, I would also like to know how i can find out the 5 digit pin code in case I loose the key fob, any help would be appreciated thanks

Welcome to the forum.

Ask the previous owner what the 5 digit code is. (they should know it) Or the it to a dealer.

This is how its done on a touring bike. you have to have the fob to find the code.

Do you know if this remains the same for the newer bikes?

Thanks for the video, it's the one I have tried and it all works up to the last bit when you press the right turn signal and it just stays on the present mileage, Thanks for you help, Cheers Baza..

No sir, I do not, this is how I retrieved mine on my 07. I'm sure someone will answer your question.

Sorry I can't be of more help, you could also disconnect the battery or tiewrap the fob to the bike during transportation.
