I saw this Biometric starting device used on a Paul Junior Designs bike build.

F.I.S.T. BioSmartStart provides fingerprint authentication and keyless entry for motorized vehicles and motor sports equipment. It connects to the electrical starter of your engine, and once the operator’s identity is authenticated, the device starts the motor. BioSmartStart can identify up to 100 fingerprints, so you can authorize as many users as you wish, to be able to start your vehicle. It also has a valet switch, should you wish to deactivate the unit, or allow single-use users. It’s more than just an alarm system Only authorized users can start the vehicle. Whether to protect your children from the temptation of joyrides, or to protect your property from unlawful access, BioSmartStart will secure your vehicle, without the complication of keeping track of keys.
Makes you wonder if Momma Kawi will bring this out to replace the FOB? I can’t wait to hear Capt Bob moan about this possible “improvement” to Kipass ;D. Advantages would be you could not lose the FOB. Obviously you could narrow down exactly who can ride the bike, and not just the lucky person that grabbed hold of the FOB. Disadvantages would be you would need to remove a glove to start, or cut off a glove tip. It would also add another 25 pages to the user manual. It could have potential, or just another reason to wonder why you can’t figure out why the bike won’t start. I have no idea if this could be a Farkle and work in conjunction with Kipass.
Does anybody see this as the future? I use a fingerprint swipe to log onto my work computer, and I know it works.
