30sec self arm. Everytime I disarm the alarm and wait 5 mins it goes off. It's a great kit to have on your bike because its works great and very load.

Who pays attention to alarms? When my Datatool System 3 motorbike alarm goes wrong with age it requires your bike to be collected by a dealer in a van and carted off. If you can find a dealer. These things should be built to last the life of a motorcycle, not fall apart after a few years.
Too expensive for what they are. There should be a foolproof mechanism for owners to switch it off if the "blipper" fails.

It automatically arms itself after 30 seconds whether you like it or not which cannot be overridden or adjusted. This means before you have got your gloves and helmet off its re-armed itself not allowing you to get into the rear under seat compartment because there is a tamper switch. I'm finding myself constantly having to switch it off. Another problem is that to switch it off you have to enter what is called service/valet mode in this mode the alarm is off but you get an annoying beep every f ...

Alarms are a pain. Too secure for their own and the user's good. I've had the Datatool System 3 motorbike alarm on two bikes and had problems both times. It drives me nuts when the fob won't disarm it, despite new batteries. Get near any source of radio transmission (eg, refuel at the garage opposite the Crystal Palace transmitters) and you'll look a fool as you're forced to set the alarm off and use PIN override to get started. Rather cramps your style if you're thinking of coolly blasting off ...

Datatool System 3 is a very expensive system but it is a Cat 1 alarm and works very very well, giving you various response sounds when deactivated to let you know what happened in your absence.
It's so good it's coming off my bike when I change models, (once I've copied the covert wiring pattern down)

The Datatool System 3 motorcycle alarm has been used in all weathers on my single cylinder Aprilia Pegaso for 10,000 miles.
Always works when I try to move or service the bike, without de-activating.
Have re-coded the alarm PIN number successfully, by following the detailed instructions line by line.
