Datatagging? :s ....

Post by Milky »

My new bike is datatagged all over. It came with a certificate etc. What does datatgging do? Do I need to tell anyone other than the DVLA that I'm the new owner etc. Someone explain? Many thanks, Tom! :D

It makes the insurance cheaper and also if your bike is stolen they can trace all the parts

you should have a change of ownership form with the datatag details on it to tell them you are the new owner.
fill it in and send it off although there is a charge of about £20 to change details
