Default alarm sensitivity
Hi,
Is there anyway to make alarm more sensitive on 2018 street glide?

Give this a try , it should work unless the newer bikes have a different procedure .. If you have the owner's manual , it should be in there .

The last time I seen a sensitivity adjustment in the owner's manual was 2006 (button fob).

with the introduction of the proximity alarm in 2007, there has been no sensitivity adjustment for the alarm.
