In this video we can see what to do if the key fits poorly in the ignition switch of our motorcycle or scooter: perhaps the key has rusted due to a storm we encountered on the road. Do not use any type of unlocking agents or fluids that are poured into the switch: remember that there are electrical contacts inside. An empirical but very effective method is to take a pencil and "color" the entire key black. The pencil is made of graphite (if desired, graphite powder can also be found in hardware stores) and will lubricate the key perfectly without damaging it, allowing you to start immediately.
