Scooter Theft Ranking: The Most Stolen Models and How to Protect Yourself in the City

The 4 Most Stolen Scooters in Italy

Thieves look for vehicles that are easy to resell for parts. The more common a scooter is, the higher the risk. Here is the "blacklist":

Honda SH (125, 150, and 350): It is the best-seller in the Italian market and, unfortunately, the undisputed leader in thefts. Shields, headlights, and engine components are in high demand.
Piaggio Vespa: The Primavera, Sprint, and GTS versions (especially the 300) are targeted both for spare parts and for the high resale value of used models.
Piaggio Liberty: The classic "fleet" and commuter scooter. It is often loaded onto vans in broad daylight in less than a minute.
Yamaha TMAX: The ultimate maxi-scooter. Highly sought after on the black market, often stolen on commission or pushed away by another scooter (the classic "push" technique).

The Risk Map: Where and When Most Thefts Occur

According to official statistics, the phenomenon is concentrated in specific areas:

Campania: Holds the unfortunate record, with Naples leading, especially for thefts aimed at dismantling for spare parts.
Lazio: Rome, with its huge circulating fleet of two-wheelers, records dozens of reports every day.
Lombardy: Milan is a hot spot, particularly for maxi-scooters like the TMAX or the Honda ADV.

Watch the calendar: The most critical months are May, June, and August. With the arrival of good weather, travel and outdoor stops increase, and consequently, opportunities for thieves.

How to Protect Your Scooter (Even for a Coffee Break)

The number one enemy of security is laziness. The excuse "it only takes two minutes" is what causes most scooters to disappear. The standard steering lock is forced open in 5 seconds flat.

A robust mechanical system is needed, but the classic chain to tie to a pole is often dirty and bulky to store in the top case, not to mention the difficulty of finding a pole near designated parking spots.

The Ultimate Solution: EasyBlock

We designed EasyBlock specifically for urban scooter riders. It is a mechanical anti-theft device that installs directly on the vehicle.

Fast: It activates in seconds. Push the piston with your foot and the wheel is locked.
Clean: No greasy chains or ground locks. Your hands stay clean before going to the office.
Secure: A stainless steel pin physically prevents the wheel from rotating.
