@@swooopg I just ordered one off of RevZilla. It got great reviews. The lock may be easy to pick but then again I doubt there will be a lot of guys trying to pick the lock. That said, I really don't think there are too many locks out there that will pass the lock pick lawyer's seal of approval. I like to think of these as a deterrent as opposed to the best way to secure your bike. Because, let's face it, if they REALLY want to steal your bike then they will find a way to steal your bike. I would use this as a deterrent and have full insurance in case it is stolen. That's just my personal opinion though. If somebody wants your shit, they will find a way.
Late response but you gotta think about the fact that if it feels like it’s moving and someone’s messing with it they gonna have to deal with a blaring alarm 😂
I have this lock on my bike, it's very very soft metal. It has pitting and indentations all over it just from rolling around in the plastic pillion compartment. So your Zinc prediction is probably right.
Somewhere where you can find other bikes with no disc lock at all. This lock is great for people who live in cities like mine. It's just the perfect level of "fuck off" that will make a thief find a different bike with no lock at all. (Which is most other bikes in my city. They only lock their bikes with the handlebar lock that you can kick to break 95% of the time.)
i have this lock. i use it without the cable. and it saved my new ZX14. they unlocked the bars and cut my chain and this was all that kept it where it was just because they didn't see it or they happened to not have a tool for it. it mangled it when they tried to roll my bike but praise jesus it saved me $22,000
You have a 22k bike and you use a cheap lock like this? This lock is meant for scooters that have brake discs with small holes where you can't fit a lock with a bigger pin
Good evening ⚠️ I am in the welding metallurgy and I grew up with grinders of all categories and my advice is to buy a disc lock according to the thickness of your disc, which means leaving no gap between the disc and the lock then it is best to close it in one of the deepest holes because with a grinder it is very easy to cut even stainless steel unless there is no space for the grinder disc to go between the two it will make the cut a bit difficult which means a few more minutes
People get hung up on how easy the LPL can pick these on RUclips. I would venture to say that this lock would defeat or at least discourage all but the most sophisticated bike thieves. Just making it harder to steal your bike with one of these will force most thieves to move on to an easier target.
I have a similar ABUS lock (although I think it's made from forged and hardened steel, not zinc, also it has their very good X-plus core), it's not really loud enough to be heard from the street into the house unless it's really quiet, but the perpetrator, unless he came prepared with ear plugs, will certainly have a ringing in his ear for the next couple of hours, and if it's parked around people it will most definetly attract attention.
What's the 1st thing we do when we set off the alarm when we're trying to unlock it? Muffle it with our hand. Thinking a thief would do the same prior to starting their attack or pick.
tinwoods 100% is wrong. I count myself in that percentage lol. even a few seconds of it sounding is enough to catch the owners attention. You can’t mute the sound completely😉saying 100% of people ignore ANY alarm is simply not true. If a house alarm goes off in my street I’ve seen people come out there doors to see what’s going on. I have told my neighbours to keep a look out if my alarm goes off as I’ve had 1 bike stolen and 1 vandalised because they couldn’t steal it. Jealous idiots. In my street we all look out for each other now as we have had many break ins in a house across the road and vehicle thefts in the area. 3 times an elderly couple have been broken into and on the 3rd occasion they broke into the wall safe. they are targeted because of there age no doubt.
My new motorcycle came with a disk lock. A couple weeks in i totally forgot it was on one day and started to drive away. Holy shit its scary when your wheel just locks up. I cracked my front fender too. It was a bad time.
I have the old hardened steel version that uses a round key. I assume it's easy to pick so I install it with the key hole facing inward in a hard to reach spot. With the key it's just a couple extra seconds to open, but picking should be much more difficult.
I love your videos! Just a question: for an expert like you is it possible to roughly guess if it is a lock hard to pick, only looking at its key and not at the lock itself?
Luckily for me thieves in my country are too dumb to even pick a lock, they go straight for destructive methods, but also they're too broke to afford cordless tools so I'm kinda safe
Easy way to test for zinc: drip hydrochloric acid (muriatic acid) onto freshly cut metal; production of hydrogen gas bubbles indicates zinc. 34% HCL can be acquired at hardware or pool supply stores.
since it's a cast soft metal, i want to see that gap/slot get some prying force. It would be easy to pry with anything flat when installed because the brake disc would narrow the space for you. From there, the little arm only needs to bend or flex 1/4" or whatever depth that pin is inserted into it. And a slide hammer in the keyhole would probably have a good chance at pulling out the cylinder too.
Thats super easy! But most thrives are stupid and will move on or try to cut the lock. This guy is a sneaky Pro if someone like him comes they want you're specific Bike and its hard to stop them. But air tags are easy to hide and can help with recovery. I have 4 on my bike
The one I got has an alarm but these sort of locks real power comes from where it’s located and the difficulty’s to get to the bolt to but cut and especially if you have them on both wheels just the slightest touch will set the alarm but this isn’t something I would recommend you park your bike and leave for a few hours I personally use this to bring my electric scooter into the gym and keep these on them to make sure no one will stroll out with it
I'm pulling my hair out here! Wtf. Why are the lock companies making these locks out of pot metal when the while objective is to protect a very expensive item. They make u-locks out of hardened steel, so why don't they makes these disc locks the same way??? What is the sense in making an inexpensive disc lock that's meant to deter theft of a $15,000 bike? People want to buy an expensive quality constructed lock for that purpose.
I know this is an old comment but I thought I'd put a small explanation. Locks only increase the effort (=time/conspicuousness = risk of getting caught) required to steal the object. Of note this will also work on a bicycle disc brake. 1. This is a secondary or tertiary lock, the main feature is that it's more of an alarm with locking as a bonus, adding to the number of locks a thief needs to bypass to steal the vehicle and thus making it less likely they would _try_ yours vs the guy next to you. Vehicle thefts of bicycles, scooters and motorcycles are most often done opportunistically rather than trying to get "your" bike. 2. Most thieves won't be picking locks, they'll be using bolt cutters, bottle jacks, grinders, and so on to quickly destroy the lock with minimal skill or effort needed. The shortest path thru this sort of lock is actually the disc, so the material doesn't matter if the thief is going to dump it into a van rather than riding it off.
@ForestCat_Peter Please read my above comment. This type of lock has actually got a functional purpose, and it's not a primary lock. A thief compares risk vs reward when looking for targets. A motorcycle can be such a high value that it's worth it for a thief to pass up a dozen bikes with 3+ locks on them for the one that someone left with 2 or less.
Strength in numbers? I wonder was their intention that you purchased 30+ of these and install 10 each on three rotors on your bike? Even a "fast" thief is going to keep walking.
If the body is indeed made of zinc the lock is basically a glorified paper weight. The pick resistance is of course a factor in the locks ineffectiveness, but the main issue is the shoddy body, the main deterrence in the device!
I know your going to get asked this about every lock but can you use the ramset against this and every lock. I would guess the river to be the weakness
Would be a much more realistic test if you did this while it ways locked to a disc and rather awkward to get at. I always use my disk lock tucked tight up behind the swing arm, where you would find it very hard to get access. Bet it would take you a lot longer doing this one handed.
I think most disc brake locks are also made out of the same or similar materials. The cylinder is a bit dissapointing again but probably suitable with the zinc body.😎✌
It would fizz if it was zinc, but it would do the same for magnesium. I'm doubtful that it is magnesium as he said it felt heavy and magnesium alloys are pretty light-weight. The vinegar test does rule out straight aluminum though.
Can you please tell me brother which motorcycle lock is the most secure in you opinion. If you can , put the link or something. Thanks a lot in advance, hope to get an answer from you
Hey LPL, have you seen the italian K-Force shutter/container locks? They're really inexpensive and appear to be very strong. I'm considering using two on my bike.
I'm looking to buy a motorcycle disc lock for my Indian Chief Vintage. What would you recommend as far as disc locks go and any other security options you can suggest? Thank you for your videos.
Having two (one silver and one in the same yellow), it's been a mixed experience. One, the warning strap doesn't fit with my brake rotors, meaning it's a blind guess if I forgot to remove it. Second, I've lived it up once a week as it seizes locked from the rubber cap not holding on. And third, get the extra keys from kryptonite as they can't be recut at a locksmiths in australia. Thanks for coming to my ted talk 😂
Requires removal of the entire wheel followed by disassembly of the wheel. If it's the rear wheel, the job is far from easy. I doubt most wheels could be easily remounted without the brake disc. Given the type of lock (the bike isn't locked TO anything), a sensible thief who prefers not to pick the lock would doubtless merely load the bike into a truck and drive it to a shop where he can remove the lock at leisure.
I have to admit i gotta kryptonite credit unlike some other lock companys at least with their security rating they just automatically give it 10 at least they see the faults and give it a lower rating
Not damaging the motorcycle isn't the main purpose of the reminder wire, the main purpose is to not damage the rider, since the bike comes to a fairly dramatic stop when the lock hits the caliper after having turned the half to three quarter turn from the locked position. You will infallibly take a fall.
I doubt thieves care about the damage.. they can switch out the brak disc. They'll also happily destroy the ignition lock itself even though that one can cost nearly the bikes value to replace.
R.P. Rosen That lock would need a whole new kind of picks with integrated spring tensioners that could work as a group to deal with each pin due to lack of room. That's just my humble opinion.
If I were to use this information to steal a motorcycle, and left the link to your video where the persons' motorcycle was do you think they would like your video? Would you please provide a link to the tools that you use to defeat these locks! - Thank you
Why do they even sell locks like these? Are they for people who don’t give a shit about their bike, or those looking for a few bucks from insurance . Locks are not the place you cheap out on.
so what stationary objects do you lock a motorcycle to on a public road? are you going to carry a big shitty 15' chain that will reach across the curb and grass to wrap around a massive tree or street light?
I dont own a motorcyle and if I did I would carry a chain because when I leave something over 500$ in a public place I think it is easier to buy a lock and chain then to replace something.
That might be the case, but having a disc lock still makes your bike less attractive to steal that the one parked next to it that doesn't have a disc lock.
Dont use these disc locks many thieves will use a pry bar or battery grinder to defeat these ive seen too many laying on the parking garage floor and a nice ducati panagale gone again use heavy chain to secure your bike frame and rear wheel to a railing or post . Thieves know the weak point is the lower jaw of these locks and yes they are pot metal ! again heavy chain and a brake throttle lock to slow em down.
This lock is a piece of shit. The pin doesn't always retract when you attempt to unlock the lock with the key. So today one of the few nice sunny days in Oregon I can't ride because the key won't release the pin and the bike isn't going anywhere.
anytime I see a lock picking video that's under 5 minutes I know it's Going to be junk.! maybe it could be used on a kid's bicycle on the sprocket ? I'm thinking that was the original intent...
Zinc ? I guess mfr's just gave up with the exotic metals now that you can get a cordless grinder at home depot for $40 . Seems the only way to really stop a motorcycle thief is with a .44 magnum

more ramset videos please, i love them so much.
I use one from Amazon with an alarm to secure my motorcycle along with a brake lever lock.
Can the lock be disassembled? It's hard to tell in the video if the screw under the rubber flap has anything to do with retaining the core...
I have to check, but at least on mine (older model) I believe it's a rivet and not a security screw.
Great job my friend👍👍👍😊😎😎😎

Try bolt extractor on the Xena disc lock. I think you'll find your match.
Have you ever tried the Xena motorcycle locks?
The other reason why it has a low rating, is the locking pin is only 5mm. 10mm pin is preferable.
If you can fit the 10mm pin through the vents on your brake disc...
Yes it should be thicker than 5 mm. I use abus granite with a 11 mm shackle on my bikes.

I'll just throw mine in the bin and get something better 😅
sadly this kryptonite lock is not a keeper
Found it nevermind thank you
I dont like disk brake locks because it wont stop someone from putting your bike on something like a truck and driving away with it.
so what stationary objects do you lock a motorcycle to on a public road? are you going to carry a big shitty 15' chain that will reach across the curb and grass to wrap around a massive tree or street light?
I dont own a motorcyle and if I did I would carry a chain because when I leave something over 500$ in a public place I think it is easier to buy a lock and chain then to replace something.
yeah right dude... if someone wants your bike - they're gonna take it no matter what precautions you take
That might be the case, but having a disc lock still makes your bike less attractive to steal that the one parked next to it that doesn't have a disc lock.
Dont use these disc locks many thieves will use a pry bar or battery grinder to defeat these ive seen too many laying on the parking garage floor and a nice ducati panagale gone again use heavy chain to secure your bike frame and rear wheel to a railing or post . Thieves know the weak point is the lower jaw of these locks and yes they are pot metal ! again heavy chain and a brake throttle lock to slow em down.
This lock is a piece of shit. The pin doesn't always retract when you attempt to unlock the lock with the key.
So today one of the few nice sunny days in Oregon I can't ride because the key won't release the pin and the bike isn't going anywhere.
anytime I see a lock picking video that's under 5 minutes I know it's Going to be junk.! maybe it could be used on a kid's bicycle on the sprocket ? I'm thinking that was the original intent...
Zinc ? I guess mfr's just gave up with the exotic metals now that you can get a cordless grinder at home depot for $40 . Seems the only way to really stop a motorcycle thief is with a .44 magnum
Me: omg he’s gonna use the pick he and Bosnian bill and I made…. Oh… how old is this video? :(
