Inputting a simple code and keeping the card in my billfold is about as easy as it gets. I have used my code three times to unlock the security system. Twice over battery failure and once over key fob failure. Only takes a minute to put in a code and it is easy to use.

I guess this is a new fangled thing. My two bikes are 1991 and 2001 and I don't know what the h-ll you're all talking about. The best security is theft coverage. This way if the bike gets stolen you can get a new bike!!!

I added the pager to mine so if someone messes with the bike you are alerted and can go out to meet with them.

Factory default is indeed 11111. Problem we occasionally run into over here is interference from clusters of gsm transmission antennas. Parking near buildings, like police stations, government offices, military posts or, even some gas stations, with lots of masts sticking up out of them can block the alarm. Several times I've had to push the bike a few yards with the alarm blazing away before it would start again. Dealers will even warn you that the service stations along tollways in France are particularly bad

What about the fax machine and pitt bull in the tour pac? LOL. (I'm joking).


Write down your code, put it in your wallet because you WILL need it some day. Don't leave home without your manual. And if your really **** (such as myself), hide a key somewhere on your bike! And beleive me, no one wil ever find it!
