I wonder about being in close proximity with the bike and someone jumping on the bike and taking off, Just a thought. I still like the "old school" ways of getting things done.

I hope Eddy is doing well these days, done with being a Paramedic by now.
Wonder what he's up to?

I thought much the same, however I do have a tendency of going back and forth from jackets and 'easy to access' pockets, which can result in a muppet dance for a few mins helmet, gloves, ke.... FK! gloves off, stuff around trying to find the bastid zip, helmet off for better vision, grab key, helmet again, gloves again etc..
or.... grab jacket, wander out to bike, gear on... wander back in side, grab key from other jacket, wonder back out....
You can program a few tags to this system, so I can just throw one in each jacket and leave that dance to history...
From the manual:
"The Area around your bike (approximately 10') is monitored for the presence of a valid Dawg Tag)...... The system arms and immobilizes your ignition system as the Dawg Tag leaves the monitored area, then disarms and authorizes your ignition when the Dawg Tag returns. "
"While most customers prefer to keep their Dawg Tag in Automatic mode, Manual mode is very convenient when you are going to be near your bike but still want to keep it secure, such as going to a rally or event."
"Here is how the system will work for you while in Automatic Mode.
The Dawg Tag is both "Proximity" activated and "Motion" activated. With your Dawg Tag in your pocket it senses as you approach your bike and the KIM system will authenticate your Dawg Tag and authorize your ignition. When you hop on your bike and flip your Stop/Run switch your Ignition and Accessory circuits will sequentially power up. Simply thumb your start button and you're ready to ride! When you're done with your ride, flip the Stop/Run switch to stop and just walk away, the system will automatically arm itself.
Here is how the system will work for you while in Manual Mode.
Manual Mode requires you to press the button on your Dawg Tag whenever you wish to Disarm the bike. When you hop on your bike, pull out your Dawg Tag and press the button, this will give you a 30 second window when you to hit your Stop/Run switch to Run, when you hit your Stop/Run switch to run your bike will energize. Next just thumb your start button and you're ready to ride! When you're done with your ride simply hit your Stop/Run to stop and walk away from your bike, the system will automatically Arm itself! "

That saves me trying to figure out how I would rebuild the switch if/when it crapped out.
I didn't realize he was a Paramedic, I would assume he's doing his best to get some time to himself after the past few years. That would have been a hell of a time to go through. No way I'd have dealt with that kinda role.
