Thanks for the schematic. That answers the question on the size of the connector (6 pin connector) with one pin unused. I am looking into those previously mentioned immobilizer emulator hardware solutions and when I have details I will post the results.
Using a wire to pull the OEM pannier latch is a great idea. I will have to try that mod out. In the mean time I obtained some shorter keys from a local locksmith for unlocking the OEM panniers. I also got some regular length unchipped keys as spares. They can turn the bike on but by design the immobilizer prevents the fuel pump from engaging. I tried locating the chipped key near the immobilizer antenna and found that it has to be pretty well centered directly above the unchipped key to work. So the idea of locating a chipped key nearby with epoxy seems unworkable. All fun experiments.
