For motorcycle owners seeking a non-insurance-approved solution, the MoreTrack Motorcycle Tracker is an excellent choice. It offers real-time tracking, theft alerts, and additional features such as:

How to Self-Install the MoreTrack Motorcycle Tracker
- Locate the Battery: Most motorcycles have an accessible battery under the seat or within a side compartment.
- Attach the Tracker: Secure the tracker to the frame of the bike using ties or adhesives. Ensure it’s in a covert location but positioned for a clear satellite signal (avoiding heavy metal obstructions).
- Connect the Wires:
-
-
- Attach the red (positive) wire to the positive side of the battery.
- Attach the black (negative) wire to the negative side.
-
- Power Up: Turn on and check the device. Ensure it’s providing real-time location updates within the app or web portal.
- Test the Alerts: Create a geofence with a small radius and move the bike to confirm you receive immediate notifications.
- Final Check: Secure all wires and verify that the tracker is properly affixed.

Where to Put a GPS Tracker on a Motorcycle?
GPS trackers for motorcycles are designed to be compact and discreet, making them easier to hide. Here’s where you should consider placing one for optimal functionality and security:
- Under the Seat: A popular choice due to its concealment and proximity to the battery for an easy power connection.
- Inside the Frame: Many bikes have hollow sections in their frame, which are ideal for stealthy tracker placement.
- Tool Compartment: If your motorcycle has a built-in tool storage section, this is another discreet location.
- Handlebar or Light Casing: Some riders opt for small, waterproof trackers that fit inside handlebars or under light casings.
Keep in mind that the tracker needs unobstructed access to satellite signals, so avoid fully encased metallic locations.
