Default Softail Pin Code
Hey all, finally made the move from a sportbike to my first Harley. I bought the bike with a flat battery and tried jump starting it today and it told me to enter the pin code with I don't know and the person I bought the bike from doesn't know either. Any soloutions? I have tried checking the manual for the pin but it isn't written down. Thanks

I think I seen in here that the last 4(?) digits of the VIN may work.

Without the FOB it's a trip to the dealer so they can reprogram the code.
