What's this?

I'm trying to figure out where to wire in my AutoCom and Garmin and decided on something around the USB loom. I unwrapped the black insulating tape and found this. What is it?
It's tiny (photo 2 shows it next to a 20p coin). Photo 1 clearly shows a minute coil inside a glass case. Anyone got any ideas?

Maybe the Scrambler is a by-product of Roswell technology or maybe it's an integrated speed transponder so that I get done for speeding even when no-one's looking. Do you think that I should I put it back to avoid visits from alien spacecraft????

Puzzled

I'd say it was a transponder.... but for what?
Datatag transponder.

Thanks,
Did a google search. Datatag it is. I'd better find somewhere to put it back then. Shame about the aliens...

Got me!
Is it something used by the factory or is it part of something integral to the bike like the starting system?
anti theft tag?

Datatag Motorcycle Security and Registration Theft Deterrent System Seems to be an anti theft tag. Funny that the dealer was not telling. Maybe the hiding location should have been kept secret ;) Maybe you should hide it now somewhere else. http://datatag.co.uk/news/news_70.php

That's great! Does all Scramblers come with this device or are they only fitted to those sold in the UK? Someone needs to check. I will certainly check when I get mine on Friday. Did I mention I'm getting my Icon Red on Friday...
