A motorcycle is the fastest vehicle to steal in Nigeria. It is light, easy to wheel away, and gone in seconds.
If a bike is how you earn, or you run a yard of them, a tracker is not a luxury. Here is what a motorcycle, okada or keke tracker does, and what it costs.
Why a bike needs its own tracker
You cannot just drop a car tracker on a motorcycle and hope.
A bike has no dashboard to hide a unit behind, it lives outdoors in sun and rain, and it shakes hard on rough roads. So a bike tracker is small, sealed against water, built to take the vibration, and tucked into the frame where a thief will not spot it.
Get that right and you have the same powers a car owner enjoys: live location, movement alerts, and on the better units, a remote engine cut-off.
What it costs
The honest answer is that a bike tracker costs less than a car tracker, because the unit is smaller and simpler.
Like all our tracking, it is sold as a service rather than a one-off gadget. You pay for the device and install, then a yearly renewal that keeps the SIM, the data and the support running. That model is laid out in full in the car tracker price guide.
Because the right figure depends on the bike and how many you are fitting, the cleanest way to get a real number is to send the details and ask. No guesswork, no surprise add-ons.
For a rider whose bike is the business, a tracker costs a fraction of what losing the bike does.
Okada and dispatch fleets
For a dispatch or delivery business, bikes are working capital on two wheels, and they walk.
A tracker on each bike does two jobs at once. It guards against theft, and it shows you where every rider is, so you can tell who is on the job and who is parked at a buka for an hour.
Run more than a few and you want them all on one screen, the way a fleet is managed, rather than juggling a dozen phone apps.
Keke and tricycles too
The same logic covers keke and other tricycles.
A keke is a livelihood for the owner and often an asset rented out to a driver. A small hidden tracker keeps it honest and findable, whether you own one or a yard full of them.
Same unit idea, shaped for three wheels instead of two.

Buy a bike tracker on a short checklist.
It should be small and properly hidden in the frame, sealed against water and dust, and on a 4G network rather than the dying 2G one. It should offer engine cut-off so a stolen bike can be stopped, and it should come with a real recovery team, not just an app.
Our bike tracking service is built to that spec, and if you are still weighing the options, the types of trackers guide shows where bike units sit in the range.
A bike is easy to steal. With the right tracker, it is just as easy to find.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a motorcycle GPS tracker cost in Nigeria?
A bike tracker is sold as an annual service and is more affordable than a car tracker because the unit is smaller. Send your bike details on WhatsApp for a firm quote.
Can you track an okada or keke?
Yes. A small, hidden, waterproof unit built for two and three wheels gives live location, alerts and recovery for motorcycles, okada and keke.
Do motorcycle trackers have engine cut-off?
The better ones do. You can immobilise the bike remotely from the app, so a stolen okada can be brought to a stop.
Can I track a whole dispatch fleet of bikes?
Yes. Each bike carries its own unit and they all appear on one dashboard, so a dispatch or delivery business sees every rider in one place.
