I havent really looked into this bike cause of the Covid 19 cant even ride it cause of registering it. But under the seat I did find the manual that came with it from the factory a lot different from My 98 super glide. now I saw on the electrical print there is a throttle twist what is that for Im going to have to read his manual from front to back but I do knowThere is no key fob. The only stuff Ive been doing to the bike is cleaning and waxing really good apparently this guy live down the shore and you never really clean the rims so I am polishing them out pretty good I really appreciate all your help on this I might have to go to the dealer maybe they can help me but the only problem is its not registered to me yet I do have the title and insured but it comes with playing around with ignition and starting I know that you have to show proof of ownership and that means registration I had that problem with my 98 super glide when I needed a new ignition switch and I got it the same

I think your ride does not have the security or it is disabled. If it did have one and working, when you turn off the ignition, the turns should flash twice after a couple of seconds and there should also be a small flashing red light on the speedo to indicate the security is on. My 13 King works this way.
You could contact the seller if the bike has security on it or if he had any fobs.

Police departments can specify their bikes in a wide variety of colour schemes and, I suspect, very different specifications, compared with the models we mere mortals can buy on a dealer's showroom floor. I imagine that when a PD wants more bikes it doesn't pick up a catalogue as you and I might, the buyer picks up the phone and talks to a known and named customer support chap at H-D HQ!
I met a chap years ago who bought a new Electra Glide and did his best to dress it up like a genuine Police bike, but there was stuff he couldn't get through a dealer, to make it exactly how he wanted it to look. He got the leather riding suit, boots and crash-helmet though!

I bought this bike off my friend and he bought it in 2012 with 225 miles on it and I got it with 4,100 miles on it. I did speak to him about it and he said that is the way he got it. Now I just dont want something to go wrong and I dont know what to look for. Now the battery in the fob should of went bad by now so my guess is either it was bypassed or this bike did not have it but the manual says nothing about a option . Next step might be to call HD on this and give them the vin number and see what comes up

Yes , you still have a key to lock the ignition and steering . The fob basically just tells the tsm / tssm that the owner is near , within proximity , and will let you start the bike .

You ain't got no fob, and that is a good thing. They are a PITA. Ain't got one on my King.

It would be very rare for a Police bike to have a security system or a siren for it. There is a specific service and electrical manual available through the dealer. Its pretty expensive but there is a lot of very specific info regarding Police bikes.
Almost all Police Bikes had ABS after about 07. Easiest clue is look at left fork leg on the axle there is a black plastic cover with black wires. It is always there on an ABS HD. There will also be an orange light on dash that will go out once bike is moving more than 3 mph.
If you want to add security you will need to purchase fob or fobs and have dealer program it . I suggest you always carry the fob in your jeans as it has a proximity sensor that is active at less than 10 feet. If you leave the fob in the bike or in a jacket on the bike your bike can be stolen while you are paying for fuel or in a washroom.
You will need to have the registration to get a dealer to program the bike.

Thank you for the update. I just checked for the abs there is no lite on the dash and the wires I checked is for the lite on the fender nothing else. I am going to purchase that manual for the bike and also try to find info on this police bike. Somebody told me that there is info that you can find out to where the police bike was working for etc.
