obriens65 Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Had a good look round the Divvy today and treated it to a wash and ACF50. I noticed that all the fairings and the tank have what looks like a security mark on them. I've looked online and can't find anyone who seems to use this particular mark and was hoping someone on here might be able to shed some light. The mark is DAT followed by a seven digit number etched in black dots. My first thought was datatag but looking at their website this doesn't look like what they use. Anyone have any ideas??

slice Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I would have said Datatag as well, I bought a fairing off of Foamy a few months ago and that had a dotted set of numbers as well, just assumed that was who it was. Foamy might know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nayruf Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Hi When I had my divi 900, I had it from new and datatag came as part of the package, it did have sets of small blue dots reading as several digit numbers/letters, also there were a few small transponder type items, one in the tank, and some glued into the hollow wheel spokes, also one was pushed into the seat foam from the underside, I had a transfer of registration document that I passed on to the new owner, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neversaydie Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Try ringing them up and ask if the bike reg is on their records Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarke Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I think older datatag markings went like that - my XVS125 had them & datatag stickers too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obriens65 Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 Thanks for the replies. I'll try them and see if it's registered to them. Thinking if it's datatagged it might reduce my insurance premiums a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obriens65 Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Well, got a reply from Datatag and it seems the bike is indeed on their register. They charge £15:50 to register it in my name so, is it worth it? Anyone on here use datatag? Remember the Rubber side goes Down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Don't use it myself but I have heard that it can be worth it just to get your bike back plus it puts the shit heads off cos they can't sell the parts with the ID on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nayruf Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I had it on my Divi, as part of the original deal, I was more often than not able to get a small insurance discount, I kept the bike for over 10 years so I figure it paid for its self, Also the area under the seat on my bike had a moulding on the upper surface of the rear mug guard that fitted the bigger Abus granit 'D' type lock keeping it in place and stopping it from rattling around, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obriens65 Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 Thanks again for the info. I think I'll get them to send the forms and register it. Can't hurt can it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
