Default Frustrated over this stupid alarm!! Any advice appreciated

Ok, Poker run last weekend. Bike ran good alarm was compliant. Bike parked for the week. Walked in to garage with my key fob and bike didn't acknowledge with quiet chirp as normal. Grabbed my other fob and same thing no chirp to disarm. Turned the ignition on and it beeped loud twice then went off. In a panic I shut ignition off. it ran it's cycle. I couldn't and didn't know how to disarm this thing. All day today I felt lucky I could get past security to start my bike.
When I turn the ignition on the red key stays on. when I walk away from bike instead of a chirp to let me know it's armed it beeps loudly three times.
Any advice to resetting this thing? it's drivin me nuts!
HD security and alarm

I'm not sure what you got goin on. I know the batteries in the fob only last about 2 years. They are about 2 bucks at my local harley shop.

Change the batteries. After an alarm or fault code the red light will come on for the next 50 starts.

I got good insurance but thats not the point. Insurance aint going to chirp when some douchebag decides it's a good idea to throw a leg over.

FYI, I swap batteries in all my FOB/controls/detectors annually every October (during Fire Prevention week). Guess it's the old FireFighter in me, but I've never experienced any failures...

In that case, why not just leave the key in the ignition while you're in the bar? Holly crap!
