Although, this video is a year old I installed the keyless start on my 2016 Vic Magnum and one recommendation I would make is to try and get as much riding time after you install it. I think my module was sitting on its side for a long period of time, so my alarm would trigger at any given time throughout the night. I would always get a tilt fault even thought the bike was on its kickstand. After I rode it a few times - long rides, the problem seemed to disappear. I think there was something wrong internally with the kit and it worked itself out over time. Love the system, love the bike even more.
The system is actually made by Scorpio Alarm (SR 900) for Victory and Polaris reworks them to include the push button. One disadvantage of the push button ignition is that you lose your ACC position on your ignition and cannot listen to the stereo when the bike is stopped. Another fairly frequent problem is that there is so many wiring changes (movement of the stock harness) that the side cover will not stay on. I spent literally hours trying to rearrange the harness to get sufficient clearance to no avail. The solution? By two more rubber grommets and crazy glue them on centre of both lower grommets. The fix cannot be seen and provides just enough clearance for the cover to stay in place.
Hello Thank you so much for this video that was very useful to install my kit, especially for me a French, this is a very good complement to the American instructions supplied !!! Again thank you and to the next commented on the portion using the remote control, video for which I have a question! ;-)
I've watched this video because I'm trying to install my keyless ignition as well. But I have and issue? on my ignition module I have wire with a connector on it that I think goes to the antenna, but it will not reach across to the other side like yours? My cable is maybe 12"
Well to be honest, it just doesn't look like I have the clearance as I have on the rt side of the bike. Also when I hooked up my two plugs to the module I didn't get the chirps you got when you connected them? I'm about to go play with it again see what happens.
It shouldn't matter which side of the seat it's on as long as it's out of the way of the seat's feet. It is strange that yours is so much shorter than mine though. Let me know if I can help in any way.
Awesome video. How does the push button on the side work though? Do you just need to have the receiver within range and hit the start switch on the handlebar?
The push button turns on the power the same way the key going to the on position does. Press once and the bike powers up and you can start the bike, press once again and the bike shuts off. You must have the fob within a few feet of the bike for it to work, or it will activate the alarm. Thanks for watching.
Michael Camacho that is a good question. I don't think the placement of the brain would be the same at all, but you might find a good enough place for it.
Kelly Cowan I’ll have to see if there’s another rider near me to make sure I’ve called everywhere and they tell me that it does not fit. I would hate to waste the money. Thank you for your quick response!!!

Nice video. Thanks for taking the time and effort to make this.

Nice job. Thanks for doing it.

You can find me on VOG under Guitardedcow as well. Thanks
Got your message; thanks Kelly.

Hi Rachel,
Here's a video on how the system works. I hope it helps. ruclips.net/video/TXKAGyHMugU/видео.html
I tried to inbox you but the site is not finding your name Guitardecow?
Hello were car I purchase one of these from
Kelly do U know if Polaris keyless ignition system is still available and where I can get one?
Nick Heinz I don’t think so. But the maker is actually Scorpio. They still make them.
I would like to know if this can be installed on Victory Vision?
Yes, but you'll need a different harness to connect to the Vision ignition system: ridescorpio.com/shop/vision-2008-2011/
this should work on a steel frame bike as well right?
Michael Camacho that is a good question. I don't think the placement of the brain would be the same at all, but you might find a good enough place for it.
What is the part number for the Victory kit?
I don't really know anymore. But, it was originally made by Scorpio.ridescorpio.com/srx900/
Hey guitardedcowan is their another way I can contact you, are you a member of victoryforums.com or thevog.net?
Can this same setup work on a 2017 CCT?
It should be pretty close. The fob was a standard accessory right to the bitter end.
Kelly Cowan I’ll have to see if there’s another rider near me to make sure I’ve called everywhere and they tell me that it does not fit. I would hate to waste the money. Thank you for your quick response!!!
