Yes - my key matches what you say, and the ignition switch has the same 3 trailing digits...

We all have been putting more time into this than it would take you to check numbers or to remove the 2 screws Put some work into your 'scoot - It's part of the fun

remember where you disconnected the ignition from the wiring harness?
you can use that to hotwire it.
there are 4 wires that run into that plastic coupler.
one is black, one is red, one is green, and the last is black w/ white stripe.
if you use a wire(not small gauge) to jump between the red and black wires by jamming it into that coupler, you can still get your bike to start.
by the way...this should be done on the harness side of the coupler...not the ignition side(i know it seems obvious, but i thought i'd clarify).
now, this is temporary of course since that wire is bound to fall out since you didnt actually attach it to anything.
the other way to do it is to de-solder the wires from the ignition and use a twist cap on the end.
since you dont have a kick start, you need a momentary push button jumped between the red wire and the red/yellow wire that connect to your starter relay(located just under the seat on the right-hand side(i think, i dont have a spree in front of me atm).)
i think the key cut way is a safer bet for someone who is inexperienced in electronics...so...maybe i shouldnt even be confusing you with all this info...just trying to help.

Why don't you go back and look at the nice pictures and read what was told to you. If you really are this dumb, you had better sell the scooter now, because you will die on it in less than a week from doing something incredibly stupid.

I don't think more schooling will help. I don't think you can fix stupid that is this bad.
This guy kind of reminds me of someone playing WOW or surfing *, and every so often between turns or strokes pops back in here and nonchalantly types in another question to your answer, then goes back to the two choices above, only to repeat the process over and over.

I'm done with this thread.
hahahahahahahahaha, oh lordy, this is assinine. so let's face it, what i said was true, he's an IDIOT.
let's all just stop posting on this thread. haha let him read, and re-read however many times it takes him for it to sink into his thick skull
That's the biggest problem with him, he either doesn't read the answers or can't comprehend what he reads and just post another stupid question. Maybe we need a common sense test before they are allowed to post.
I don't mind someone not knowing, but after they have been told several time, there just isn't any excuse anymore.
