Hi vespa freaks, I own a 09 LX150 that I got from auction last year, and to my surprise she was in very good condition, did carbs clean and couple little adjustments and replacements and had her running in a Short period of time, So I got me a pretty scoot for less than $1000 total.

I'm planning to add a 2nd, baby to the family, this time is a stunning Gts 300, the issue with this one is that it is a recovered theft and of course NO KEYS available.

Is it possible to have this baby running?
What's the biggest issue I might encounter?
I know it won't be cheap Ecu keys throttle body adjustment I think, just want to know if anyone here with similar experience had their scooter running and what else I should be aware of.

Thanks in advance and ride safe and in style

Also from me a "warm welcome"!

Yes, we have exactly this just discussed, marret has already linked.

Tell me the year of manufacture and if possible the prefix of the VIN (e.g. ZAPMA3100..., only the first 9 digits of the VIN), then I can see which parts fit.

The biggest problem could be the ECU, but there it depends on the VIN (in case of need year of manufacture).

Gibts pictures what else was destroyed (lock, glove box, handlebars, etc.)?
