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

The 4 Most Stolen Scooters in Italy

Thieves target vehicles that are easy to resell for parts. The more widespread a scooter is, the greater the risk. Here is the "blacklist":

  1. Honda SH (125, 150 and 350): It is the best-selling model on the Italian market and, unfortunately, the undisputed leader in thefts. Fairings, headlights and engine components are in very high demand.

  2. Piaggio Vespa: The Primavera, Sprint and GTS versions (especially the 300) are targeted both for spare parts and for their high resale value.

  3. Piaggio Liberty: The classic fleet and commuter scooter. It is often loaded onto vans in broad daylight in less than a minute.

  4. Yamaha TMAX: The ultimate maxi-scooter. Highly sought-after on the black market, it is often stolen to order or pushed away by another scooter (the classic "push" technique).

The Risk Map: Where and When Theft Is Most Common

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

  • Campania: It holds the unfortunate record, with Naples at the top, especially for thefts intended to dismantle scooters for spare parts.

  • Lazio: Rome, with its immense fleet of two-wheelers in circulation, records dozens of reports every day.

  • Lombardy: Milan is a hotspot, particularly for maxi-scooters such as the TMAX or Honda ADV.

Watch the calendar: The most critical months are May, June and August. As the warmer season arrives, travel, outdoor parking and, consequently, opportunities for thieves increase.

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

The number-one enemy of security is laziness. The excuse "I'll only be two minutes" is what makes most scooters disappear. The standard steering lock can be forced in just 5 seconds.

You need a sturdy mechanical system, but the classic chain tied to a pole is often dirty and bulky to store in the top box, not to mention how difficult it can be to find a pole near designated parking spaces.

The Definitive Solution: EasyBlock

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

  • Fast: It activates in just a few seconds. Push the piston with your foot and the wheel is locked.

  • Clean: No greasy chains or padlocks on the ground. Your hands stay clean before you head to the office.

  • Secure: A stainless steel pin physically prevents the wheel from rotating.
