Default Alarm Chirp Question

A friend of mine just bought a 2011 Road Glide Ultra that came with factory security system. Today, he pulled it into a place an when he got back on and pushed it back and stopped, The alarm chirped like it was setting the alarm again but he never got off the bike. Has anyone else had this, and is it normal. My 2010 Ultra Limited has never done this so I don't know what to tell him. He says it has done it two times now.

it'll chirp as a warning when disturbed---it then looks for the fob and will disarm if it finds it.

sometimes I have found my alarm doesn't quite find the fob and acts a little funny---happened about 3 times when parked directly next to a Pal, and of course he had his fob with him too.

Try replacing the battery in the FOB. My Ultra started chirping and it quit when I changed the battery.

Keep the Fob away from your cell phone too.
