the default code when i bought my bike was the last 5 numbers of the vin.

knoing the manual bypass is a must. if you aren't comfortable with it, you should practice it until you are. once you get good at it, it only takes about 15 secs to input.

Mine wasn't any where close. Must be a dealer specific thing. My last 3 bikes from the same dealership had the same code.

Lesson learned! In all my excitement to leave the dealer Wednesday and to ride last night... I don't know the code

but at least I had my owners manual with me so I could put the code in, that I didn't know

My dealer didn't use 11111, but something almost as easy to figure out - 12345. I'm glad it wasn't something too difficult to figure out since I never bothered changing it and my fob died on a long road trip...

My sales guy changed my code to what I wanted when I picked the bike up.

the proximity fob that is being discussed is a feature that was introduced in the 2007 model year. no, not all harleys have it, and yes, you do have a security pin as well. if you don't know it, i suggest you break out the owner's manual and follow the steps to set it to something that you'll remember. you just have to have the fob with you when you do it.
