I call bullsh*t on the video, go to the original on youtube and he doesn't answer any viewer questions.
What piqued my interest on this was basically, what if you could program a key transponder (like the typical $30 ebay option), sit on the bike and press one of the buttons, and turn the key to start the bike? That would be very cool. Even if the transponder key option doesn't work remotely/actively, it would still be far less than half of the price of a backup passive transponder and programming (my dealership wanted a full hour for programming) and it leaves a slot open for programming.
Local locksmith here was unsuccessful in an attempt to even identify the chip in my passive transponder and active FOB. They said it's theoretically possible to pull the RFID info from the FOB, but the chips being used don't come up on the scans (which means it's unscannable, too rare to be read on a normal system, or a combination).
I posted on a couple facebook forums, and no one of thousands has ever DONE this, they just "know of someone who did it" or "know a guy whose cousin's mailman's brother's friend's sister's next door neighbor did it."
Looks like an urban legend, unfortunately
