Default Security fob noise

I keep the security fob for my Street Bob on the key to my bike. When I ride, the fob will bounce around in the wind and clank against the frame. Have any of you noticed this problem, and what did you do about it?

You leave the key in the ignition while you ride?

Please tell me you're just kidding and that you could have figured that out by yourself . Otherwise I'd have to say you shouldn't be on a motorcycle .

Move the ignition switch from the neck and into the dash, and you wont have that problem anymore

Put your security fob back in your pants.

Put your Fob on one of those keychains that you push the button and they pull apart. That way you can store the keys together put can remove the fob when the key is in the bike. I hope this helps.

the wife uses this for her S.B. Works good for her.....

Street Bobs have the ignition on the forks and must have the key in. That would annoy the hell out of me if mine had that.. Hell i dont remember to bring my key half the time!!!

You leave it in the ignition? Forget the noise, you might as well hit it with a big hammer and get it over with quick.
