I hate key fobs

Read the manual? Really?
As clearly stated in my post, "This is a summary summary of what I've learned from the manuals, service techs, and personal experience."
My intent was to consolidate all the information and personal experience (including forum advice) into one post so other users wouldn't
have to fill all the knowledge gaps. I have found the system is so complex and nuanced, each rider has their own ritual and process to get these things started. This is no matter how many times you read the manual.
This was proven to me when they rolled out my bike after pairing the keys. It was a 2 hour ride and wanted to verify it was working as
expected(?). I went through the steps positioning key, toggling switches, etc, etc and it wouldn't light up. Tech tried and nothing. I ended up having 3 service techs standing around the bike comparing what procedure they used, and they were all different in some respect, to how they sequenced pushing the handlebar toggle switch.
I'm disappointed you're bothered and bored by old information being revisited. It might be for you, but there are many of us on this forum that might find SOMETHING in the post that was helpful. That's the point of knowledge sharing.
I would suggest if you find the a post redundant and boring, just ignore and move on. Don't discourage less experienced owners from asking questions by telling them to read the manual.
