Look for windroid toolkit in original Android development section.
Use it to - First unlock bootloader, then flash recovery, then flash supersu.
Is that method using fastback.win?

Don't know when but you will have to unroot and install the stock recovery
For unrooting
1 Open SuperSU
2 Tap on Settings
3 Choose*Full unroot*under*Cleanup.
4 Tap on Continue.
Wait a few seconds as SuperSU un-registers and removes itself.
For installing stock recovery
Refer to this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2779249
Or
Download the stock firmware for moto e
Extract recovery.img from there
And flash it using fastboot command
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Hit thanks if helped!
And what about relocking bootloader? If its already unlocked then the update will not be unlocked I guess

You will receive updates even if the bootloader is unlocked
Yes but as I know if boot loader is unlocked it will give some error at the time of installation

No,
It will only give you an error if you have modified/removed any system app.
Bootloader and root cause no issues updating.
However, these all are just assumptions as of now, based on previous experiences.
Who knows what update will bring.

So that means there is no need to unroot or lock boot loader to install the update. Right?
Sent from my XT1022 using XDA Free mobile app
Yes, that's correct.
It might even work with custom recovery with a little modification.

That's great news thanks

I recommend you to use TWRP recovery,because it has more options.
If you have root access on your phone you could use app called Flashify from Playstore.
When you download Flashify,put TWRP image on you sdcard and open and click on flash Recovery image option in Flashify.When you click that find twrp image on your sd card and select it.
Thats it.
Link for TWRP,click here.
I tried one app like that and i ended up with system wipe.

And can you please suggest some links to a custom rom

This means you did not have unlocked boot loader. Without boot loader unlock you can't install custom recovery or custom ROM. There is a recovery for locked boot loader but it only allowed to install Roms based off of your stock ROM. For anything else you need to unlock your boot loader first
