Default Where's your FOB?

Sold my 10' Ultra and got a shiny new 14' limited. My 10' didn't come with the security and I never added it. Now that I have it I'm curious what the rest you do with your FOB. Besides the obvious, (toting it around with you on your key ring) what creative solutions have ya'all come up with? I read somewhere that some have taken to hanging it on the pull loops of their riding boots. While I could do this, I don't always wear the same boots when I ride...

Nothing creative here, it's in my pocket.

I have had security of some sort on my bikes for over a decade and mine stays attached to my key. On the bikes I have that still use an ignition key I use a lanyard with the security device, which I can clip my key to. I've seen suggestions in HDF that the fob can be taped under the seat, or other 'secure' places on the bike, but that seems to miss the point of security!

Yeah, that's kinda stupid.

You could do the "Total Recall" option and have it embedded in your brain...

JK, security FOB is useless when "fixed" to bike...meant to be on your person so get a clip, or purse.

Mine is on my key chain but what do you do with the second fob?. Mine is at home where It will do me no good if 'm ever out riding and I loose my keys.I carried it in my jacket for awhile but since I frequently leave my jacket locked up on the bike it sort of defeats the purpose.I did once loose my keys and was lucky enough to have left my spare in my jacket and was able to break into my own saddle bag to get it.

You can always override the alarm by entering your code.
