A Honda motorcycle tracker that Honda approves

The best tracker for most Honda riders is the Datatool Stealth S5. Honda approves it, it carries Thatcham S5 (the top category), our UK team watches it 24/7/365, and £359 covers the unit and the fitting. If your Honda sits in a garage for weeks at a time, the Quantum 3 (Thatcham S7, from £249.99) is the better fit.

Datatool has a dealer route into Honda showrooms: the tracker is offered to buy alongside every new Honda motorcycle. This Honda UK page has Honda’s own page on the offer.

Which Datatool tracker suits your Honda

Think about how the bike lives, not just which badge is on the tank.

• The Honda you ride every week. A CB650R on the commute, a PCX125 on the school run, an Africa Twin on the weekend loop. This is Stealth S5 territory. It is wired in, you carry the rider tag, and the monitoring team rings you if the bike moves 150 metres without it.
• The Honda that spends the winter in a shed. The Quantum 3 runs on internal batteries, so there is nothing to connect and nothing to flatten. Fitted by a Datatool Approved Installer for £249.99, or Self-Fit at £249.99.
• The Honda you cannot afford to lose. Add the radio layer. Scorpion VHF+ is for the last stretch, when a bike has been loaded into a van or a lock-up. The Quantum 3 with VHF+ starts at £269.99 and launches under Ofcom licence 1419997/1; £578.99 buys it with three years of cover.

What Honda approval means for you

Honda has looked at the Stealth S5 and signed it off for its riders. That is a different thing from a generic aftermarket box. It also sits alongside the insurance side: Thatcham S5 is the category insurers recognise, and you can read what that means on our Thatcham explainer.

Once the ignition is off, the S5 watches for movement. A text warning is optional, and if the bike leaves its area without your tag, our monitoring team calls you. If you confirm the theft they work with the police. The tracker gets a remote health check every 28 days too, so a fault does not go unnoticed.

Honda models in Datatool recovery reports

Honda is a regular name in our monthly recovery posts, so these are bikes we see first hand. We name what the reports name, nothing more.

• March 2026: the PCX125 was the Honda model targeted most often.
• June 2026: Honda was the most frequently stolen brand, with the WW125 scooters, CRF1100, Africa Twin and CB650R all named.
• July 2026: Honda again led the brand list, topped by the NSC110, and a stolen Honda WW was the fastest recovery at 6 minutes.
• September 2026: the CB650R made the top three most targeted.

Pick any of those and the advice is the same. Tracking needs to be in place before the bike is taken.

What you get with the Stealth S5 on a Honda

Each journey is logged in the Datatool app for iOS and Android, with live position, journey history and a low battery warning from the tracker. Privacy mode and zero speed mode hide your speed and location from view, and we only switch them off if the bike is stolen. Tow-away alerts catch a bike being lifted onto a van, and coverage runs across Europe, so a trip on the Africa Twin is covered abroad. The unit carries a 24 month warranty and has virtually zero current draw with the ignition off.

Subscriptions: pay £12.49 monthly, or prepay for one to five years at £119, £219, £309, £389 or £459. Lifetime is £549. Compare them all on the motorcycle trackers page, or read our honest guide to the best motorbike tracker.

Honda tracker questions

What is the best tracker for a Honda motorcycle?

For a Honda in regular use, our pick is the Datatool Stealth S5: Honda approved, Thatcham S5, watched 24/7/365, and £359 with fitting included. A Honda that spends long periods parked, or that resists wiring, suits the Quantum 3 battery tracker from £249.99.

Does Honda approve the Stealth S5?

Yes. Yes, and Honda is joined by Yamaha, BMW and Triumph on the approval list. It also holds Thatcham S5.

Can I buy the Datatool tracker when I buy a new Honda?

Yes. The tracker is offered to buy with every new Honda motorcycle through the dealer. Honda explains the offer on its own campaign page, linked above.

How much does a Honda motorcycle tracker cost to run?

Expect £359 for the Stealth S5 with fitting done, then a subscription: £12.49 monthly, £119 for twelve months, or £549 to pay once for life. Quantum 3 costs £249.99 and shares the monthly and yearly rates.

Will a tracker flatten the battery on my Honda?

With the ignition off, the Stealth S5 pulls next to nothing from the bike. For a bike left alone for weeks, Quantum 3 carries its own cells, good for as long as three years depending on how you set it up, so the battery on the bike is untouched.
