Gauging intrest

After reading all the cons that people have mentioned it seems like a useless gadget.
Instead of just carrying a small single key I now have to carry that key plus a card transponder. Of course I could ditch the key but then I couldn't remove the rear seat/hump in order to access the trunk or lock up my helmet. And forget about putting gas in the bike since the tank caps needs the key too.
Can't lock the steering so now someone can just wheel it to a secluded area behind the hotel and procede to "work on it". Plus with the steering locked the bike is more stable with more lean angle on the kickstand.
On long trips I don't keep my wallet in my back pocket, I keep it in the zippered vest pocket of my jacket...will it work from that far away?
What's the power consumption like on a small motorcycle battery? My alarm will kill my battery in about 10 days of just standby mode. Will it be another item I need to remember to turn off when I park my bike for a couple of weeks? Will it get along with my paging alarm system?
I guess it would work well if someone is trying to jack the bike since as soon as your ass leaves the seat the bike dies out. However I'd rather use the anti hijack feature of my alarm to allow some space between me and the bad guy with the gun before disabling the bike.
Seems like a lot of time, complication and money all just to keep from placing a key in the ignition switch...a key which you need to have on you to begin with.

Just got off the phone with the company doin the keyless.
Hears what I got:
1) Once you start the bike, you can move around and it wont kill on ya. The only time it will die is if you hit the kill switch. So stand-ups or starting you bike when it`s cold and then walkin away to get youre gear on is not a problem.
2) the system keeps all the interlocks that the starting system had before. No oopps starting if the kick stand is down.
3) I found a system that we can put in for a servo to open the trunk if you want
4) as far as the neck lock. Nothing I found will help that, sorry.
Im still workin on a price but should have something very soon!
Ill let you all know what I find.
Thanks,
Josh

I'm down, but I'd like to see a pdf file or something regarding install, and what about warranty?
Count me in for one as soon as we begin the ordering.
