Electronic Security Identification System for Motorcycles

The Datatag motorcycle identification system has now been in use since April 1992 and there are currently over 500,000 motorcycles protected by Datatag in the UK. The theft rate on these tagged machines is less than a 10th of the rate before Datatag was developed and because of the large number of tagged machines now around, the whole theft picture for bikes has changed for the better.

Based around electronic transponders that provide an electronic 'finger print' to key components, the system also uses 'stealth' chemical etching and includes approximately 1000 Datadots® for minor components.

The best way to prevent your motorcycle being stolen in the first place is to have Datatag fitted when you buy the machine. Datatag's multi-layered electronic identification and anti-theft system enables the Police to identify the true owner of any Datatagged motorcycle, even if the number plate and standard identification numbers have been removed or changed.

Datatag has a fantastic success rate, and criminals are well aware that the CPS has never lost a court case in which Datatag has been used in evidence. As soon as thieves see the Datatag warning decals on your motorcycle they will usually leave it well alone and go looking for an easier target.

Datatag Motorcycle System Technology

Glass Tag Transponders

Glass Tag - This transponder is roughly the size of a grain of rice and can be easily installed. It contains a unique code number which is permanently programmed into its integrated circuit. The number cannot be altered or deleted.

Button Tag Transponders

This transponder is about the size of an aspirin and is one commonly used in harsh environments.

Tamper Evident Warning and Re-Registration Label

Specially designed decals warn off any potential thieves and are both attractive and impossible to remove without damage.

Warning Decal

These specially designed Datatag resin domed decals warn off any potential thieves and are both attractive and impossible to remove without damage.

New UV Stealth Etching

New and improved system comprises a unique alpha numeric code and Datatag’s 24/7 contact details are permanently etched into the panels and fairings. They do not deface or interfere with the appearance or aesthetics of the Motorcycle because the etchings are visible under ultra violet or UV lighting and in most cases, cannot be seen in daylight conditions.

Datadots®

A superior microdot identification system developed for ease of use. The Datadots can be applied to any surface, thus making it virtually impossible for the criminals to locate and remove them all.

Datatag DNA

Is a unique chemical DNA solution. Each piece of plant or machinery will be protected with an invisible unique DNA code. Criminals will have to be confident they have removed every molecule of Datatag DNA. Datatag can supply this state-of-the-art DNA technology in paint, lacquer, glue, liquid, powder, grease, oil and a spray system.
