Yamaha motorcycle and scooter tracker: Datatool Stealth S5

Free Datatool Tracker

It’s every biker’s worst nightmare having their prized Motorcycle or Scooter stolen and theft is a growing problem in the UK. That’s why, at Yamaha, we are going the extra mile to keep your Motorcycle or Scooter safe and secure!

Receive a Datatool Stealth S5, usually costing £249, free of charge when you purchase a new Yamaha Motorcycle or Scooter from any participating Authorised Yamaha Dealer. Fitting and subscription charges apply.

If you are choosing a tracker for a Yamaha, start with the Stealth S5. Yamaha approves it, it is Thatcham S5, and our UK team monitors it every hour of every day. Already own the bike? The S5 is £359 fitted on datatool.co.uk, and the Quantum 3 suits a Yamaha that is stored or awkward to wire.

Matching a Datatool tracker to your Yamaha

Yamaha riders cover everything from learner 125s to big touring machines, so the right unit depends on how the bike is used.

  • Commuter scooters like the NMAX. They are parked on the street day after day, which is the situation the Stealth S5 was built for. See our scooter and moped tracker guide for the wider picture.
  • Naked and sport bikes like the MT-07. Wired in with the S5, plus your rider tag, gives you alerts as soon as it moves without you.
  • Tourers like the Tracer 9. The S5 reports across Europe, and journey history in the app records where you have been.
  • The second bike under a cover. A Quantum 3 needs no wires. £249.99 when an approved installer fits it, the same for Self-Fit, and £558.99 if you add three years of cover up front.

What Yamaha approval tells you

Yamaha puts the tracker into its own dealer offer, so the approval is not just a logo on a leaflet. The unit is designed to Thatcham Research standards (category S5), as explained on our Thatcham page.

The offer on this page is the dealer route, so ask the showroom when you order. The £249 above is the figure Yamaha quotes for the unit alone; the price on our own site is £359 because it includes fitting wherever you choose on the UK mainland.

Yamaha models in our recovery reports

Datatool’s monthly recovery posts list the Yamahas our team has dealt with. Here is what they say.

  • September 2026: the YZF-R125 was the most targeted model, noted as a popular learner and commuter bike.
  • May 2026: Yamaha was second among brands, with the MT-09SP, YZF-R7, NMAX 125, X-Max 125 and Rayzr named.
  • June 2026: the N-Max and MT125 scooters and the Tracer 900 GT drew thieves’ attention.
  • March 2026: the NMAX125 was the Yamaha model that appeared most.

Same lesson each month: the tracker has to be fitted before the theft, not after.

Living with the Stealth S5

Park up, switch off and the S5 starts watching. Carry the rider tag and everything stays quiet. Leave it behind and a bike that has moved 150 metres sets off an alert to our monitoring team, who ring you. Because the tag is part of the system, it also answers the problem of cloned keys.

The motorcycle trackers page lays out every price, and the subscription runs from £12.49 a month up to a one-off lifetime payment of £549. If your Yamaha needs more than GPS, look at the Scorpion VHF+ radio layer for the last stretch of a search.
