Security issues
Check and replace the battery in the FOB is what I was told every 6 months or so or at least once a year. With ignition in the on position and and within 2 seconds hold down both left and right turn signal switches a OOOOO will come up on the odometer put in your own code by pressing and releasing left turn signal switch then press right signal switch, first press will show #1 press again for #2 and son on one you reach the number you want press left signal and repeat for the next 4 digits, time is limited so be quick ....repeat if you are timed out on the coding.

in either case, you have to have a working fob with you in order to do this (not to override the system, but to check/change code). otherwise, it wouldn't be very secure.....

the manual has you do a on-off-on sequence with the ingnition before you hit both turn signal buttons. also, if you already have a code stored, but you forgot what it was, this will show you what your stored code is, instead of all zeroes.

As several people have mentioned, the override procedure is very simple. But it wouldn't hurt to become familar with, and practice, overriding the security system. It is far better to know the code/procedure and not need it then to need it and not know how to do it.

Carry extra batteries on the bike somewhere. Cheap insurance. I've helped out a fellow rider when his fob died hundreds of miles from home.
Buying an extra battery to carry, just in case: $3
