Default Security Question

I'm thinking about putting a center stand on my 08 ultra, but I'm not surehow the security system act. When the bike is parked on the side stand the system arms, when I lift the bike up right off the stand the alarm goes off as it should. Does anyone know how the system will act if it is parked on a center stand with the side stand in the up position?

It should act the same way.

Next time you park your bike turn it off, stay on it so you can keep the bike sitting level and hand your key fob to a friend. Then see what happens when they walk away far enough to activate the security and when they walk back toward you to deactivate it.
