Sorry I was incorrect. Apparently the fob has to be close & then you can get the speedo to display the code

If I was a bike thief I'd have one of these....

you don't pick the hole bike up on to truck just the front tire. strap the front tire, forks and it is gone. don't take but a couple second if your prepped and ready to go.

What's your comfort level about security ? A good cable and or chain and couple locks take up way less room than a big empty hole where your bike used to be .

6 foot is 8 is better so you can go through the rear wheel and or the frame then around a pole or rail to secure it to . Don't need to anything but make it a pain in the *** 95% will move on if it's gonna take dicking around with to move .

a .45 takes up a lot less space than that

When I bought my bike used at the dealership, the first thing I asked the service department before I took off was does my bike have a security system, and is there any way to disable it?
They said it does, and the best way to disable it is to never use it they told me to take the FOB and throw it in a drawer. As long as I never arm my bike, it should never be a problem.

If the thieves want my bike, they'd just load it up on a flatbed, for sure. No security system will stop them from that. But locking my ignition and fork makes it at least a little bit harder for them
I'm picturing them now trying to load/roll it on the flatbed with the front wheel cocked and locked... need some muscle to lift up that end and carry it
