You'll need the Stock N firmware to do that. Wait a few days/weeks and someone might upload it and post it here.
After that, you can use fastboot to flash the stock image, relocking BL in process.

Why would you do that? Warranty is gone anyway - when you have requested the bootloader unlock code from Moto, they keep that request on file.

Hello Xda this is my second Windows Tool to Unlock boot loader..........
pre-required:
1. Moto boot loader key.(sent by Motorola)
2. Any Motorola device.
Procedure1. connect your device in usb debugging mode.(No need to reboot into bootloader ,It will automatically reboot it)
2. Just paste your key in text box and click on unlock button,thats it............
3. Hit thanks button if it works and post your comments.
WARNING: UNLOCKING YOUR BOOTLOADER VOIDS YOUR WARRANTY.PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK.
(EVEN YOU RELOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER)
NOTE: Unlocking the bootloader will Wipe/ factory reset your device, and will delete all personal data from your device such as apps, photos, messages, and settings.

I relocked it a couple of days ago. It was quite a hassle with continuous errors! I definitely want the official update of lollipop so I wait with re-unlocking until I'm sure I don't need an locked bootloader anymore!
I hate to be unrooted however (used to cyanogenmod 11 on my previous device).

Even with unlocked bootloader ull get official update. Only thing is you ll have to flash the update manually from cache folder.
And root, we ll have the zip file as soon as someone gets update on xt1068. No need to wait for ota update. Manually flashing is more simple i feel.
I cant stay without root[emoji14]
to relock the bootloader what procedure should I use?
I tried everything but I can not. thanks

I put the stock rom and stuck bootlaoder,
I get DEVICE IS LOCKED. STATUS CODE.2
however, the warranty will be void.
the original version had STATUS CODE.0

About the status codes:
0 = locked, original, never been unlocked. Warranty OK!
3 = unlocked. Warranty void!
2 = locked, but has been unlocked in the past. Warranty void!
I don't know if there is a status code 1.
In other words: everything is as it should be, but you'll never get your warranty back.

to unlock and relock bootloader your bootloader build must be 2014 build (that's unlockable and relockable bootloader) . 2015 build bootloader is not unlockable . kitkat .54 bootloader is 2015 build.

Don't relock bootloader with MM ROM.
(if you already have N firmware, right now)
After flashing MM, you will receive OTA for N, and it will brick your device.
Do it with latest N september patch (available in guide section)

You can, but you need to remember that "don't take OTA in future, never tap update notification"
Also if you sell or give your phone to someone else, give them latest N.

Yes, fastboot commands are same.
hi! i know this is something irrelevant but since this is related to bootloader unlocking,i wanted to question that if i wanted to relock my bootloader which was on the sept 01 patch when unlocked;would i have to flash the same build from the fastboot again to relock it?and will it be safe to install ota updates after relocking the bootloader and reverting to the stock rom?

Only for taking OTA, locked bootloader is not necessary, you can take OTA with unlocked bootloader too.
things to take care of,
don't flash older firmwares than you have at the moment,
As you have september patch, flash september (while relocking too), don't downgrade.
If you downgrade, then don't take OTA. Warned..

My bad!
GPT and bootloader won't get flashed if you downgrade, it will fail, you can't flash older versions.
I don't know if it's possible to lock without flashing them, You can try flashing without GPT and Bootloader.
Just a suggestion! You don't need to flash the firmware again, if you are already on it. For eg, If you are already on Sept patch and want to relock, you don't need to flash the ROM again to relock it. Just use the fastboot commands.
I would recommend to leave it unlocked, because if anything went wrong with your device, atleast you will be able to save the data of internal memory atleast!

Hello,
based on my experience with this device, this is only possible
if you followed rules by Meticulus...
Using his recovery you should have created a backup
through which return to rooted stock.
If you don't have that backup this is not possible anymore...
Cheers
Sadly i dont have any backup but i have the bootloader unlock code. If i do a full ota can i unlock my bootloader with the same code?

Sure, but...
you have to go back to stock first.
