[Ninjette Newsbot]

Suzuki GB has launched a Datatag scheme for it’s used models, following the success of the Master Security Scheme.

Launched last year, the industry-backed Master Scheme consists of fitting almost every new motorcycle with Datatag security technology.

Datatag permanently but invisibly marks your motorcycle or scooter, making it identifiable to the Police in such a way that is difficult for a thief to defeat, therefore the risk involved in stealing this marked machine becomes much higher.

Since the introduction of the Master Scheme, only 403 machines have been reported stolen out of the 52,687 fitted with the system. That makes a machine equipped with Datatag four times less likely to be stolen than an unmarked bike.

Suzuki are offering the system to owners at a subsidised cost of £55 including fitment.

Suzuki GB’s Paul de Lusignan, said: ‘The impact of the Master Scheme has been felt right across the industry from manufacturers to insurers and of course most importantly, with customers. While we are very proud to be part of this initiative for new bikes, we wanted to make sure that all of our customers have this chance of extra protection.’

To arrange fitment, contact your local Suzuki dealer.
