Bike won't start
On two occasions the last three weeks my bike wouldn't start. Here's what happened both times. I was out riding with a group. We stopped to talk a few minutes. I shut the bike off with the kill switch. I don't think I turned the ignition off either time. After a few minutes I went to start the bike back up and all I got was my four way flashers going off. The bike was in neutral and the clutch was pulled in. The infotainment system was not coming on. It was dead except for the flashers. I shut everything down and then back on and still only the flashers were working. I shut everything off and on several times and finally, after about 2-3 minutes everything went back to normal and it started. I'm not sure it's something I did or not. I am switching to my other key fob for my next ride but this is a new bike and the fob is only nine months old.

In the owners manual it says that the fob must be at least 3" away from other electronic devices.

I had two occasions this last week where I flipped on the ign. and hit the starter and nothing...the info screen was also black. Flipped it back OFF then On and away we went. Funny thing was, the fuel pump started and it seemed normal and ready to run but, no crank.

I also had a small issue w/ the bike showing the "no fob" on the mileage display after a few minutes of riding.
I carry the fob in the tour pack.
I replaced the battery and never got the message again.
Bike was only a few months old but who knows how long the fob was sitting in the little bag and the battery may have been weak from the start.
As your garage door opener interfering? you never know....I always put that in another pocket away from my phone and/or fob.
Never hurts to try it out.
