For a second I thought this was a LockPickingLawyer video and was confused as to what could possibly make a scooter key switch so pick resistant that would warrant a 7 minute video.
LPL would have just used a wafer jiggler and the actual "picking" would have taken about half a second. He'd then spend a minute or so ragging on the awful lock.
I thought a large screwdriver of prying, or a drill. I guess since those large mits of his have the dexterity to solder surface mount components, they can manage lockpicking too.
Since he had the lock picking set handy it was purely a time saving measure to use it. He might have hade to call in Tony Robinson and his team to excavate the other things you guys suggested..

Actually this is a fairly standard arrangement on a lot of bikes / scooters / moped / etc. Many (if not most of them) can be kickstarted after simply disconnecting the ignition switch, which opens the circuit between ignition and ground. You won't have working lights, indicators, horn, electric starter, etc. And you may have to also defeat a steering lock, but it'll drive just fine otherwise.
I've spent some time in Taiwan and it seems that *everyone* has a scooter over there... The vast majority of them seem to be made by the local manufacturer Kymco and quite often they are gray in color. The best defense against getting your bike stolen is to park it among a group of bikes that look just like it so the odds of a thief randomly choosing yours is less... :) Of course, one problem with this is that you might misplace your own bike when you do that... I ended up misplacing the scooter I was renting and spent a couple of hours walking back and forth down the streets near where I parked it while trying to find it... I eventually narrowed it down to a 4x4 block area and just sequentially went down every street (N-S and E-W), looking at every license plate to see if it matched the number on my key chain...
@@penfold7800 -- After that experience, I started setting a GPS marker on where I parked the scooter and took photos of the surrounding area and the nearest street sign so that if I lost it again, I at least had a *chance* of getting closer to it before having to do the sequential search... With a 4x4 block area that I had narrowed it down to, that mean that there both sides of 10 street that I needed to search and each street was 4 blocks long. Yeah, I learned a lesson from that experience... Of course, not ALL of the blocks were wall to wall scooters the entire length of the block on both sides, but often there were nearly a full block on one side and a good portion on the other side... I would have to go look at my records, but I suspect this was back in 2016... It was a fun trip though... I would drop my wife off to the thing she was doing for the entire day with the other old ladies who had come there for the same thing and then just start riding the scooter to see where I ended up -- sometimes in the mountains, sometimes in some remote part of the city... And then use Google Maps and the GPS on the phone to find my way back... I avoided all the typical tourist areas if at all possible, although I might have stumbled across a few just by accident... Drank a lot of beer -- nearly all of it crappy other than one particular craft brewery pub that was owned by an American (IIRC) ex-pat...If it wasn't for this COVID nonsense, I would have no problem going back there for another month and scootering around for the entire time (assuming my wife had some old-lady-stuff to keep her occupied with)... :) The advantage of being financially secure and retired -- you don't give a fuck about anything anymore and just want to enjoy what little time you have left before the final dirt nap...

You know you watch too much LPL when you look at the key and go "Yup, that's a wafer lock, we're going to use our trusted rake and get it open faster than with the key"
Well done. I wish I'd seen this before I had to figure out the wiring on my GY6 CCS (Cheap Chinese Scooter). The hardest part was realizing that turning the key off *closes* a connection. BTW, scooter key switches often have a steering interlock to prevent you from doing anything but going around in circles. You have to take out 3 or 4 bolts to bypass that.
As a lock picker myself I’m pretty impressed. If I had to pick a keyswitch I’d go with an Assa abloy one containing either a Medeco or an Abloy, I actually have a medeco one, you usually find medeco’s anywhere where there is a lot of cash, like cash registers, vending machines, and other things of that sort.
*PLEASE HELP* ! Can anyone link me to a cheap lock picking kit so I can retrieve the key I accidentally shut under the seat of my puma valentine 150cc moped???? :-(
We did exactly that on high school with our classmate's Puch Maxi. Disconnect the ignition switch and start the engine with the kickstarter. But we did not drive it, we just waited for him to see his surprised face when his engine was already running.
BigClive, you might also find the internal mechanics of a bike key switch for a Yamaha Virago interesting - beside the on and off positions it also has a "push in and turn" action for lights only, with some moderately elaborate internal gubbinry to activate/deactivate it. It certainly left an impression on me - it's much more complicated than some simple warding or cam path. Surely also other bikes have similar key switches but I have no idea which ones...
Many years ago I got my hands on a similar lock, it was very easy to pick (just standard wafers, raked it in one second). But even more interesting was the fact that the contacts were connected to the lock body, you could simply put a piece of metal (I used a small screwdriver) straight into the lock until it bottomed out and tilt it to the side and the circuit was complete, starting the engine (or whatever you connect it to).
Done that style of lock using nothing more than 2 paper clips, they are not secure at all. Amazing just how many things use that style of 4 wafer lock, and how easy they are to pick that often it is faster to pick it than to find the key on a big bunch.
These are quite fun little switches. Something so simple is so interesting. Thanks for taking it to bits for us. Our little one uses the same key for her motorized dirt bike. Do you know where I can get a second spare key?
That switch is the exact same switch I needed for MY Chinese 250cc quad. Frustrating to see it destroyed. On the other hand, now I at least know the wiring breakdown and can fit ANY switch.😎
I think bosnianbill would classify that gutting as a disaster. Good fun! Thanks for sharing, that wiring harness gave us all a lot of amusement! Wonder if they've got Chinese harnesses for cars and airplanes too!
Kind of like when I grabbed my keys the other day, but I got the wrong set. Without thinking about it I stuck the Jeep key into a Chevy, and it started. LOL!
I have a can am quad, used a RFID key that snaps on the ignition ball switch. Different programming for different keys change engine and transmission settings.
I enjoyed it. Thinking about it, I bet you could cook up an interesting lock challenge for LPL and BosnianBIll, some sort of self-soldering or galvanic lock that can only be opened with a high voltage key ... or something else clever and electrically related.
i had a peugoet buxy scooter/moped, and that thing would start with the kickstart if you removed the cable going into the ignition... so safe lol (a honda vision has the same problem i believe)
Happy New Year BigClive! Need help to repair my powertool. Could you please suggest which moderately priced 5S (18 volts) BMS is available? Is it possible to use a 6/7/8S Bms for 5S? Thanks.
Love your videos. But... not an alternator (although there is one). Any two stroke and many four stroke (garden machinery) engines use a magneto for ignition. If there is motion there will be a spark. The switch shorts out that circuit to stop the spark, like you said. Disconnect everything, bump start and it will run, just not an alternator
@@bigclivedotcom Interesting... probably a dual function rotor/stator to do magneto CDI ignition and charge the battery at the same time. What was the engine/vehicle/tool?
@@davidw7155 yes a lot of scooters have a magnetic flywheel spinning around two stator coils. One for lighting and battery and the other is for the capacitive discharge ignition. There is also a pickup coil on the outside of the flywheel for ignition timing
The proper way to take it apart is to use a follower at the rear of the lock. It's basically just a 1/2 inch plastic tube the same size as the inside of the lock and when it follows it the outter part of the lock is held together. Then the middle cylinder can be removed and worked on. Which is usually done to rekey. I've rekeyed a lot of locks & been doing it for decades now.
"… I was going to try picking this 'high-security' padlock, but it's apparently been so intimidated by the sound of my voice it has spontaneously opened its shackle before I could pick it up. In any case, that's all I've got for you today".
Hi does this work like a normal switch because I’d like to know if it will work with my e-bike thanks for your help and very nice informative video by the way 👍🏾
Clive that is the same way a magneto on a small aircraft works. But in the aircraft it is referred to as the "P" lead. Just take the wire to ground and you won't get any spark.
Hey boss I ordered a stealth bomber bike from ali baba the ignition lock all the plastic around it broke off and I can't fit the ignition through the hole it's insecure what should I do
The lock itself seems to be made of plastic as well, so a big screwdriver and a good turn is just as good as the key! How nice of them to be so accommodating to forgetful users.
A simple raking attack is all that’s usually needed to pick these, although I have run into wafor locks that I’ve needed to SPP. SPPing and raking are what set amateur pickers and professional pickers apart, as a practicing locksmith, I can SPP standard pin tumbler locks pretty easily. You should check out Locknoob he’s the UK version of LPL and BB.
My brother had an old CB125 with the key switch under the gas tank on the frame. He would park it outside work and during the day some kids would come and "hotwire" it and drive it around while he was working...they would usually return it before he got off work. :D
It used to be that anyone who wanted to steal Toyota pickup trucks would carry a spare ignition switch and a Slim Jim with them. After opening the door with the Slim Jim, they would reach behind the dash, unplug the ignition switch, and plug in their own, and off they'd go. No picking, no hot wiring.
It doesn't have pins, it's a wafer lock. It has wafers. Interesting the pick that you use is the same shape on the end as the wafer rake pick that I use on these (from the cheap Chinese GoSo set). Nice quick pick though. I never considered how useful lockpicking skills would be to an electrician. It's a very useful skill to have. It would save a lot of destructive entry to get in to machinery control boxes. Glad to see you're taking every opportunity to practice, and learn just how junk some locks really are. I bet you're kicking yourself about past experiences now! Lol.

Does the high voltage really go to an alternator? would have thought magneto.
1:35 Hey @bigclivedotcom, I was not aware that your abilities included lock picking! Well done my good sir!
Always nice these last 5 seconds: "Well there we go" (it's broke again.....).
I am guilty of not reading and thought this would be a LPL video lol
Is it wafer or pins? If the former, a set of juggler keys, would allow you to open it with even less skill.

I thought this was the lock picking lawyer until I saw the multimeter
The lock itself seems to be made of plastic as well, so a big screwdriver and a good turn is just as good as the key! How nice of them to be so accommodating to forgetful users.
Many scooters and cycles have very cheap ignition locks. Usually very easy to fit keys to them.
A simple raking attack is all that’s usually needed to pick these, although I have run into wafor locks that I’ve needed to SPP. SPPing and raking are what set amateur pickers and professional pickers apart, as a practicing locksmith, I can SPP standard pin tumbler locks pretty easily. You should check out Locknoob he’s the UK version of LPL and BB.
that's a wafer lock :D good job raking it
incoming dmca from the lockpicking lawyer ;)
What are the white connectors called and is it possible to take them apart and reuse?
The white connectors are called connectors but sometimes called connectors.
Brass, or brass plated aluminum?

My brother had an old CB125 with the key switch under the gas tank on the frame. He would park it outside work and during the day some kids would come and "hotwire" it and drive it around while he was working...they would usually return it before he got off work. :D
Nice kids, I mean they could have kept it. 😅😆
Big Clive picking locks? This is the last channel I was expecting to find this.
But seemingly everyone in his comment section also knows LPL and Bosnian Bill.

@@bigclivedotcom Nice
Excellent and interesting video as usual. BTY Poundland have just started to sell WiFi controlled power plugs £7 each!!
I almost bought one, but am not a fan of IOT stuff.
@@bigclivedotcom I have the same thoughts :)
...and as always, have nice day. Thank you.
You are amazing. Love your videos.
i’m missing my key to my Roketa Cayman 150. How would i unlock the seat and the gas take so i can change the locks?
Lock picking lawyer videos might inspire you.
What's a secure lock? I haven't seen a lock that hasn't been able to not be picked that is used daily with maybe the exception of electronic devices
It used to be that anyone who wanted to steal Toyota pickup trucks would carry a spare ignition switch and a Slim Jim with them. After opening the door with the Slim Jim, they would reach behind the dash, unplug the ignition switch, and plug in their own, and off they'd go. No picking, no hot wiring.
I should not have clicked on this as fast as i did...
big clive takes on the lock picking lawyer lol
@Curtis Webster Bosnian Bill's accent changed
It doesn't have pins, it's a wafer lock. It has wafers. Interesting the pick that you use is the same shape on the end as the wafer rake pick that I use on these (from the cheap Chinese GoSo set). Nice quick pick though. I never considered how useful lockpicking skills would be to an electrician. It's a very useful skill to have. It would save a lot of destructive entry to get in to machinery control boxes. Glad to see you're taking every opportunity to practice, and learn just how junk some locks really are. I bet you're kicking yourself about past experiences now! Lol.
