The keyless security/alarm system is very cool, by the way. Love it.

One slightly sideways comment as we await the fix results. The security system draws battery power...low level but it's still there and it's more than without the feature. For over winter storage I put mine in either transport mode or disconnect the battery ground. That delays the time between periodic maintenance charging which can be every two or three weeks otherwise as the battery voltage falls from 12.8 to 12.5 or lower.

My guess is it was never set up prior to delivery or set up improperly. When I bought my bike they asked me what numbers I wanted to use for the pin and they would program it. Works perfect, I checked the pin they entered using the system and it was present. Then I changed it and rechecked the pin to make sure it changed and worked like a charm. The service manual describes the fob pairing and initial set up the dealer must do, requires they use a tech gizmo, Digital Technician II for assignment and initial pin entry.
Sounds like the dealer is not really up to snuff on the system...."someone left a fob in the bike" LOL!!
