| I just ordered an eBay special rfid keyless ignition system.
I will be hooking it up in such a way to that the kill switch powers the rfid box and the rfid box powers the bike.
That way I can walk up turn the kill switch on pass the tag over the sensor and fire her up. When I want to turn the bike off all I have to do is hit the kill switch which will turn off the rfid box in turn powering the bike off.
I had this setup on my last bike and I loved it. |

| Hmmm .... Can you link this system to the NFC in a cellphone or is it just setup for it's own tag?

| It's setup to work with any rfid tag. Unfortunately nfc is a different tech and wouldn't work. Though that would be cool.
My goal eventually (when I get up the nerve) is to embed an rfid tag in the side of my hand for the ultimate keyless ignition!
I forgot to say, it will be wired in such a way that the key will still work in event of the failure of the cheap chinese system. |

| I'd like to find a reader that I can access with the NFC in the phone and mount the antenna in my docking cradle so I can put the phone in and hit start. I have my phone set to  start my driving dashboard app when I turn on the helmet bluetooth, and that starts the gps speed sensitive volume control.

| It could be easily done with an arduino and a nfc shield. In the future I want to add an arduino to my bike to control various functions |

| Again why waste money on junk like that? Honda still has simple//cheap keys---duplicate about $3. Why put stuff on bike, when Honda has already figured out way that work?

| Because I'm a tinkerer. I like to modify things amd I have more time than money. I can't afford all the latest and greatest new toys so I like to make the things I do have my own in unique and interesting (to me) ways. |

| Problem is with added junk---fails in middle of nowhere and you are stuck. I have Genesis---wife drives, I don't like it-----all magic electronics-----couldn't even put it in neutral without stupid key ....to move a few inches in garage.
Think SilverWing---no kick start/not able to be push started/starter-battery failure----happened to me recently in rural Maine----I had run battery down with stupid after market compressor(That went in trash). Wasted time/got going based on long time experience and help from HD rider. |

| In this case the key will still work to turn the bike on, the two systems will be hooked up in parallel. |

| And I have good old AAA on standby if I ever break down and can't fix it on the spot. Speaking if which I need to go beef up that oem tool kit |

| I must admit reading this thread I kept thinking why the f*** would you do that? "Because I'm a tinkerer"... the perfect excuse :-) |
