Great information.

I just watched the HD security video (came with the bike) but I will pick up an extra fob battery to keep on the bike in case of dead fob battery.

Thanks, Steve

Factory default code is 11111 so make sure to change it to your own personal ID number. the batteries are small enough that you could carry one on your bike somewhere but that could be seen as being ****.

$1.50 a year for batteries is pretty cheap!!!
