Kerrsy,

Please answer some questions:

1. Do you have a "Keyless" Gen 2 XR?
2. Tell me what you mean by "IMMOBILIZER." Are you refering the OEM "Ant-Theft Alarm System"(https://www.ascycles.com/bmw/2020/S1000XR/Optional%20Equipment%20and%20Accessories%20Motorrad/Retrofit%20antitheft%20alarm%20system.html#PartsTable)?



Best,

I am pretty sure that all modern bikes(especially BMW) are fitted with factory 'Immobilizer' systems (not to be confused with the optional 'alarm' system. For me the immobilizer is the system where key/fob has to be in close proximity to the ignition ring antenna for the bike to be able to start.
