Bike finger print starter

To be honest. Between cloning a fob and just picking up your bike and throwing it in the back of a van, both are about the same investment of time. A motorcycle will be stolen by just moving it. A car, cloning fobs is a real concern for theft cause two big guys aren't gonna be able to pick it up and walk off with it.

I would look at a keyfob for a motorcycle as a convenience and not as a deterrent. Easier when walking away, easier when walking up.

They aren't throwing large ADV/couches into vans!

You could possibly sew the FOB into the back of your glove and just wave your gloved hand over the ignition. See 5:19 of this video. He also goes into some things to look out for after that.

if it's for added security, just wire one of these on with your kill switch and take the magnet tether with you when you leave the bike, nobody is starting it easy without a little magnet or messing with wires.

OR ... would you say "back to the basics and bring the kickstarter back"? ... no complications and almost 100% reliability.
I have found it easier to kickstart a 650 twin vs a 350 single, go figure!

half the population wouldn't know how to start it to steal it.

I had a 360 Maico, got the kick starter on the wrong stoke and the kick back would put you over the handlebars, if you didnt sprain an ankle. I like kickstart bikes, buty its a love/hate relationship LOL
My Norton had an electric start button on the handlebar switchgear, but the bikes never came from the factory with an electric starter, just the button. (the guys knew at the factory the thing would never work anyway)

1975 Nortons did have an electric motor, that would activate when you pushed that button. You still had to kick it, the motor was a "starter assist".
Nobody knew it wasn't a starter, used it as a starter, and burned it out quickly. Friggin Lucas crap. (There's nothing wrong with Lucas).
