Not done it before so a bit weary of attacking bike ?????

It's easy.

Read the instructions.

Make sure the etching templates are fixed properly with no bubbles. Be economical with the glass/panel chemicals (just enough to fill the holes) and only leave them on for the duration instructed. These numbers are meant to be a deterrent so do not hide them in inconspicuous places. I put them on all the big panels, engine covers, mirrors, screen and light lenses

Fitting the transponders is often easier if you remove a panel as you may find a convenient hole in the frame where wires & tubes pass through. You may prefer to raise the tank and stick one underneath rather than faff about getting it to stick inside.

Keep the 2 for the wheels handy and take them with you next time you get tyres fitted.

Youll find that the most up to date kits do not have a tank transponder and they give you an extra seat transponder to place into the wiring loom after you have found a good place to cut and hide it in the loom. You simply peel back the harness covering, insert the chip and then tape it back. If you have atank transponder then its an old Datatag kit. You should also have alphadots but no round sticker just two rectangular datatag ones.
