Keyless Ignition Mod HOW TO WITH PICS

If that's for sale I'd buy it and the Triumph alarm. Very cool.
Let us know if you are selling it, please ;-)
 
If that's for sale I'd buy it and the Triumph alarm.

Just to clarify - this module does not require an OEM alarm, it connects to the pre-installed alarm interface connector (all Triumphs have this pre-wired connector on board). In lieu of an alarm, there is a bypass plug connected, which bridges the interrupt circuits
On the Rocket this connector is under the tank: most other models have it under the seat; so in the left of the picture you can see the extender cable which allows the control module to be placed in a nice dry area, under the seat (Incidentally the OEM alarm also comes with an extender cable for same purpose).

I have a comprehensive install guide, however this is the super-condensed version to very simple steps:
  1. Raise tank, plug extender into the OEM Alarm connector after removing the bypass
  2. Connect other end of the extender into the Control Module
  3. Connect the Relay harness via the smaller connector
  4. Connect the Main Power circuit wires via Posi-Taps (4 go to the Fuse Panel, 1 to the Turn Signal Module)
  5. Connect the Clutch Switch Wire at the ECU via PosiTap
(specific detail of which wires to connect in the guide)

There are no OEM wires cut, and no soldering or other permanent types of connection to make. The PosiTaps provide for minimally-invasive connections.

I just completed development, build & test of adding an immobilizer function - essentially adds one more relay to the mix.
That can be optional feature as desired.
If attempted hot wire of the ignition circuit takes place, the relay will energize and open the circuit unless the Remote is within the active range. So replicates the OEM Alarm system in this capability - except of course it disarms hands-free as you approach, no button to press (the only thing missing is the noise-maker - no loss there IMO!!!)
Indeed even if the key is used, the immobilizer will still kick in unless the remote is also present.
There is no risk of the immobilizer coming on when riding - the system uses a normally-closed (unenergized) relay for normal operation; as before the remote goes into 'sleep' mode once ignition turned on, so does not rely on communication between remote & controller once the ignition has been turned on legitimately (i.e. with the remote in range initially)

This extra feature does not add any additional connections to be made to the bike - still essentially same as the original hook-up (although the intermediate connectors are slightly larger as require more positions); but the additional feature is all self-contained within confines of the kit in how it interfaces to the bike i.e. through the alarm connector and the 6 Posi-Taps.
It adds slightly to the size of the relay block of course but not prohibitively



This is Relay Kit with the Plug n play Key-Switch Harness version:

Hi , I recently purchased a keyless system from Ken DEcosse . The unit arrived packaged in a professional manner with everything required for the install including a full set of descriptive instruction and wiring diagram included .The unit was easy to install and tucked away very nicely, I had no problem getting the unit to connect first time and working as stated. I think this is a well thought out product and design and cost IMO Great job Ken
 
Where can I purchase this kit? Also, will it work on my 2015 R3 Roadster?

Thanks,
Buzz
 
Note: I can now supply option with a plug n play version with harness/connector to the OEM Key-Switch connector in place of the PosiTap harness.

Just built myself a little Test Module/Simulator - makes it much easier for testing than the rats nest of wires, switches and lamps I was using previously! :D

Recognize in most of the video we are looking at the Test Module which of course is NOT part of the kit.
The video helps to illustrate how the system works, only using the OEM bike switches for operation.
The 'Ready' LED on the bike is actually the OEM alarm LED in the instruments.
And there is no additional 'ignition' indicator - it is obvious when the ignition turns on, same as if you just turned the key.

Sorry - got a bit dyslexic in the audio at the end of the video, transposing 'armed' and 'disarmed'
Just to clarify, the Ready (or dis-armed) state is indicated by the Green LED being on.
System DISARMS automatically (becomes 'Ready') when you approach the bike and LED is ON;
As you walk away from the bike, the system automatically ARMS or 'Not Ready i.e. LED is OFF)

And just to be clear, normally you do not have to touch the remote - I'm only using the manual button so I can operate it directly at the controller, so I don't have to walk away with it while filming; normally it just remains in your pocket and all works purely off the detector; range is about 5m and as you walk towards bike, you will see the turns flash and when you get to it the 'Ready' LED will be on; then all you have to do is set the Kill to 'Run', pull the clutch, start and go. Remote never leaves your pocket.
Similarly, shut bike down with the Kill switch (I typically immediately set it back to 'Run' after bike is off), then simply walk away and it will re-arm itself

What an AWESOME piece of design and work! :thumbsup:
Too bad 90% of what you did is over my head! :(
 
Thank you! Appreciate the kind comments.

Too bad 90% of what you did is over my head! :(

Don't worry - if the 10% you DID get includes the knowledge of how to connect a couple of plugs together, and how to operate the clutch lever and the Kill switch I think you would be covered :D
