While Max6200, or should I say Max6201 was lying unconscious on the floor for three days his house was ransacked and among the many things stolen was the keys to his scooters, a GTS and an LX50. Where do we go from here? I've heard that ECUs that don't have an immobilizer exist but I don't know where and what do you do about the lock cylinder? Do you have to remove it and take it to a locksmith?

Thanks

Contact Motovista, a member here. It will probably entail changing the immobilizer, key switch, etc... bummer. Let me know if I can help some way or another.

Chet did a great job for me on older tumbler locks, but they would need to be sent to him. Not a company, just a talented guy w/ fair pricing, access to key blanks and a lot of various locks fixed. Clap emoticon https://modernvespa.com/members/ph0ngvu

Only for Max, unless Chet's bored which he rarely is.
