its clearly visable white dobs of glue with tiny dots in it..they are about the size of a 20cent coin..i thougt it was abit gay for if it got knocked off they would just have to scrap them off.

They might just be the stickers on each part or section so that crims can see that the bike is data dotted and not bother steeling it? otherwise you still loose ya bike and the crims only find out its got dots when they go to flog it off. the data dots are or should be sprayed on in a mist like application not just blobbed in 1 section, but yer i would contact the dealer to confirm any doubt, could you let us know what they say please...cheers

Mick...

Oh and i may be wrong but think it is purple uv light that shows the dots laughing

the dots should be on in about 20-30 places, once the glue drys [ that suspends the dots ] it should be pretty much clear and you should only see what resembles, dots of fly sh*t. We have to put them inside hollow axles/shafts, CDI box, back of cyl and head, wheels, carb. and heaps of other things. I gotta say it would be pretty much impossible to scape them all off. We've had to do hundreds and I've never seen any white marks left after the glue drys. Wadey [ Yamaha Dealer ]

mine have got that "clag" look too but i don't reckon data dots stop your bike getting knocked off anyway - tea leaves will steal what's easy to get at.

save yourself some money and buy it from supercheap auto. they are about $60 cheaper than the bike shops.
each pack can spray about 5 quads no problems. you then register your name on the datadot website with the unique code and if your quad is stolen it is easily identified by using a blue light or "csi" light. they then check the code on the police/datadot register and they call you.
easy...
