Keyless "entry"

[krushnuts]

Was thinking the other day, how some cagers have keyless entry to their cars, and just approach the car, the door automatically unlocks and all they have to do is get in and press a button to start and go.

Wouldn't it be great to just hop on ur bike and press a button and off you go!? Anyone heard of this kind of technology for motorbikes?

yes it would be great but how would u go about the steering lock...?

Anything is possible. There are tranponder type alarm systems in the aftermarket. Then it would just be a matter of having the know-how to wire it up.

I am just having an alarm like that installed on my FZ6. The work is not still finished, but I will keep you posted on the final result and impressions.

uuups: just to correct myself, it is not a transponder type alarm! it is a normal alarm with a remote start function

Kawasaki 1400GTR has something similar. There is a "key" type knob in the conventional place, which only becomes active when you are close to the bike with the remote.

A guy i work with has an 09 model Harley Fat Bob and it has a tag thingy that he has to have within 2 metres of the bike to start , it has no key and is reliant on that tag which is fine till you lose it and a replacement is $576 yes he knows the price Silly biker ran over it :rof:... That'll teach him to ride a $38000 badge :thumbup:

Do you only get one tag for 38 k ?

The Kawasaki Concours 14 has this type of technology. They call it Kawasaki's Intelligent Proximity Activation Start System or "KIPASS."

This review has details on both the bike, and the KIPASS.

We have installed this on a Victory Jackpot. Works as it says it does.

It should have been "Kawasaki's Intelligent Close Key Activation Start System", better known as "KICKASS".
