Anyone that read my previous posts may know my contact/ignition thing (how do you call that in english anyway?) is worn out and my keys can (and did) fall out.
So I want something else. I could order a new lock and keys, and replace my tank lock, saddle lock.. but I am not going to bother. I want something keyless this time
Here is what I want: I want a system that will only let me turn on my bike when there is an RF tag ("key") within range. Now there is a catch: I dont want to drain my batteries by having the receiver on all the time. Ideally it would have a "push button" that will turn on the system, scan for "key", if its found, switch a relay that turns on the bike and remains on until I push the button again.
If no key is found in range, it should turn itselve off after a few minutes or so (and perhaps sound an alarm). Ideally, it would also have a regular key or some code to override the system in case of emergency/malfunctioning, forgetting or losing the RF key.. On second thought, no need, Ill just use my existing ignition switch in parallel over the keyless system as emergency backup.
Ive looked hard for something along those lines, but found nothing. I can find keyless systems with alarms for cars, but they all enable the doors to open and stuff, but they dont seem to provide a relay that is turned on until manuall turned off again (for the ignition) so I'm not sure if I could mod that into something I want for my bike. Needless to say, they don't have a timed switch/button to enable the system for only a few minutes.
Any pointers ? Some products ready to install, or components I could mix together myselve ?
