Enter Pin to start bike...

Mine was set to 12345 from the dealer. I rode from the dealer straight to a buddy's house to show off the new ride and he started my bike when I wasn't close enough for it to register my FOB! He was just proving a point....a point that I got LOUD AND CLEAR. I changed my PIN right then and there.
I think it should be mandatory for dealers to make you change it before leaving on a new or used bike. This way you never forget and get it stolen!

This bike is the first with security. Does this sound normal. I can have the FOB next to the bike and the bike still ask me for the Pin code. Then sometimes, with a 6 second delay the ignition turns on. Then sometimes no delay the ignition turns on. I think this is a problem. Anyone want to trade the security module for a non security?

Here is just a heads up about the key fob and the pin number.
If you fail to set your code and your fob battery dies, you will not be able to start your bike. I understand from my dealership that the cost to correct this issue is around $350 or so. With that in mind, please everyone -set your fob pin number.

If your FOB battery dies, and you do not know your PIN, go to Lowe's and buy another FOB battery for 3 bucks. When you get back to your bike, it works.
Nothing to reset....
THEN, after you've learned your lesson, with your FOB at your bike, reset your PIN.
OR... take your FOB and your owner's manual to your bike now, while the battery is still good, and set your PIN. If you cannot remember your PIN, write it down. ZIP codes make good PINs, Maybe the one you grew up in... or your grandmother's... As long as there are no zeros.
Dealer does NOT have to set your PIN. As long as you have your FOB at the bike, you can reset the PIN.
There is no magic involved.

Pin number, what pin number? Thanks to the info here I now have a secure bike, or somewhat secure. I’m thinking of all the times I left my bike unattended with a pin code of “11111”. Sturgis comes to mind, I left it parked on a side street an entire day more then once. You'd think the dealer would have said something about it. Probably did, but in such a hurry to get on the bike and ride it home, it went in one ear and out the other. Again thanks for the good info on this forum.
