Did you steel this bike?

No fob, no manual?

 

I'd be looking for a new dealer. I love their fob system.

 

That was my point. If someone changed their code to 11111 it is almost the same as leaving the FOB on the bike. It is better to have something that is easy to remember only to the owner. Not 11111, 22222, 12345, etc. which someone can possibly guess. Or possibly stumble onto after attempting different combinations.

Sorry Ron. I missed your point the first time around.

 

jagrrr - here's the method that I said I would post.

How to input your own code.
Have the working fob present
Turn the ignition on - off - on -off - on
Press left signal 3 times
Press right signal once
then input the first # by pressing the left signal the desired # of times
Accept by pushing the right turn signal
continue with the left signal and right signal acceptance until all 5 #'s are in
Turn the ignition switch off. The new pin is accepted.

As far as the 11111 # being risky. The has never been a report from mid 2006 on of any loss. One dealer has all the bikes with security leave his floor with that number in. There is no report of the security system ever preventing a loss. That is why I quit wasting money on the bikes that I have bought since then.

Many like me have found that it is a pain in the rear and is off no value.

 

If he had the fob present, he would not have started this thread about how to ride his stolen bike.

This was my first thought also, which is why I didn't go into more detail about the actual procedure to do anything. But there is another point I would like to make, which anyone can consider, or they can ignore.

In 1971 I would ride my H1 to school, UNLV, everyday. And I would use a little dog collar to lock the rear wheel. The place where I parked was in an area where there were always people walking past. And several dozen people at the top of the hour when classes let out. So I wasn't too worried about a few guys throwing my scooter in the pack of a truck. Or bending over and cutting the lock.

But one day I was running late for class and didn't take the time to put the chain through the back wheel. I never saw that H1 again. My point is, depending on the parking location, sometimes even a not perfect attempt to defend against theft may be successful.

In my case it turned out to be a good thing. The H1 was my high school graduation gift from my parents. And I really didn't ike it very much. But I used the insurance money, added a little and got a CB500. But if a person had a bunch of bling that his theft insurance wouldn't cover the cost for a security sysyem may be worthwhile.
