Harley-Davidson's journey began with the 1905 Model 1, essentially a motorized bicycle, but that humble start launched a company now leading the motorcycle industry in the U.S. While Harley-Davidson is now a global public company, its headquarters remain in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where the first bike was made.
Fast forward to 2024, Harley offers over six cruiser models, showcasing the latest in internal-combustion technology. The Livewire S2 Del Mar, introduced last year, is an electric motorcycle priced under $16,000 with a range of up to 113 miles. Today's Harleys come with advanced electronic systems, from Bluetooth-ready infotainment to digital suspensions.
Modern Harley key fobs add convenience by arming and disarming the bike's security system. Some fobs have buttons, while others operate hands-free. If your fob malfunctions, here's how to reset it:
For Fobs with Buttons:
- Replace the battery with a 2032 coin-style battery.
- Set the kill switch to "off."
- Cycle the ignition switch on and off twice, then turn it on again.
- Press and release the left turn signal twice.
- Press the fob button to display the current PIN on the odometer.
- Use the left turn signal to adjust the first digit, press the fob button twice to move to the next digit.
- Repeat for all five digits, then turn off the ignition.
For Hands-Free Fobs:
- Bring the fob close to the bike and set the kill switch to "off."
- Cycle the ignition switch on and off twice, then turn it on again.
- Press the left turn signal twice.
- Press the right turn signal once; the current PIN will display on the odometer.
- Use the left turn signal to adjust each digit, pressing the right turn signal to move to the next digit.
- Complete the five-digit PIN and turn off the ignition.
