Default 08 STREET GLIDE/FIRST IMPRESSIONS
300 MILES ON MY 08 SG. LOVING THE STEREO, LOVE THE SIX SPEED, VERY SMOOTH. I EVEN LIKE THE STOCK EXHAUST, DOESN'T SOUND AS WIMPY AS MY HERITAGE DID. I WILL LEAVE IT ALONE FOR NOW. CHANGED THE SEAT TO A SUNDOWNER WITH A DETACHABLE BACKREST FOR GUESTS....

The FOB should be the security. Will your Bike start if you do not have the fob near it?
