Totally agree, great devices. The new keyfob is larger as it uses a new type battery which lasts much longer, this change has been about a while now before the introduction of the new MM7. Monimoto also suggest you don't put the keyfob on your keys. Burglars are evermore breaking into houses to take key sets (because it's more convenient) and if the Monimoto is attached to your keys that's that plan scuppered!

Hi, so far you have the most useful video on the monimoto 7. Yours differs from mine in the settings menu. I have been trying to adjust the trigger range of the device on the motorcycle to my key fob. Yours makes sense: dial in the distance! Mine only has sensitivity as low default high. I assumed that my setting indicated if the bike was slightly moved to majorly moved that was what this setting was. In default, the alarm was going off with the fob 6" away!! Anyway, I just set it to low. We'll see. LOL

I ordered one for Labor Day sale. Seen a few videos on it and decided to give it a try. I’ve had 3 liter bikes taken 1 had an air tag (not bashing the oír tag but I can’t get a precise location on it) All 3 had full coverage and now I just finished a 2014 Hayabusa complete paint job, exhaust, dyno tune,quick shifter, and full radio. So being in South Florida I guess I will give this a test and see if it gets stollen can I get it back.

The batteries in the new one are still going strong since I've posted this video, so that's 9-10 months so far. The old version used to last around 6 months, from memory. With the Duke, I'd suggest possibly taking off one of the panels and zip-tie the MM to the frame below. It took me a few attempts to find somewhere that I was happy with. Mine seems to be able to get a connection regardless of how many things are in the way!
