Immobilizer Flashing Light

How long does yours flash once you've turned the bike off? I ask because on my Hyper, it flashed for 12 hours. If I rode to work the day before, it was still flashing the next morning when I left for work again. My SS seems to stop around an hour after the bike is turned off. I'm not exact on the time because I've not officially timed it...but it's definitely off after a short period of time. I looked it up in the manual and on page 39 it shows a chart. The chart indicates that its supposed to flash for 12 hours, but mine surely does not. I attached the chart for your reference. What are you guys seeing?

I know this is a small issue, but curious all the same. :nerd:

It's mentioned in the manual. Mine has the ducati alarm installed and that flashes longer than the immobiliser.

I'll check (well... I'll try to think about checking it). It's supposed to be 12 hours...

Yes and that's why if you and one other film it while you go inside for a beer .. we all will probably know the answer to what your asking.. I say it's 12 minutes not hours...

I'm sure a few will leave a go pro on it now.

Not sure how long mine stays on, but it's definitely less than 12 hours. It seemed like it stayed on for days on my Hyper.

Ok, I took the time to time it with my stopwatch. 58 minutes, give or take a few seconds. Odd time, but let's round it and say 1 hour.

Wonder why the manual leads you to believe it's 12 hours? I KNOW my Hyper was, indeed, 12 hours! Maybe they made another copy/paste error with that table...??

TBH, I wish it were 12 hours. It was a good deterrent for would be thieves! Actually I'm a little disappointed.

I've checked on mine, 3 hours after stopping it, it's not flashing anymore... so I bet it's one hour... there was no limit on my previous one, I'd prefer.
