Thanks for the reply I’m trying to avoid that at the minute if possible
As it looks like a really simple lock

It has a sticker on the side saying KH-DX 24v but I can’t find anything for replacement keys online

Im not expert but I’m guessing it’s a 2 or 3 pin lock

Would a rake work with this type of lock
And if I attempt to pick it will I find the pins binding and clicking into place like on some locks iv seen

Part of the reason that I am recommending a locksmith has nothing to do with the skills of a locksmith . It is because we DO NOT KNOW YOU.

Just look at it this way... What if you had your electric motor bike stolen, then you found that the thief learned how to make a key or how to pick the lock from this site. I am not saying that you are a thief. I am saying that we don't know you, nor do we know your bike.

We are trying to protect you and your property.

I am a locksmith. I see or hear this exact type of problem very often.

The lock most likely uses wafers and not pins. Picking may or may not be easy but you do not want to have to do this every time you need to use it. From the picture I can not see a code number for the key. therefore a locksmith will have to find the correct key blank and hand file a key by the impression system. A good locksmith may??? find a blank that fits closely enough to use with or without some small modification to make it fit. Many relatively new pieces of equipment have locks installed that do not have readily available key blanks. They are either just too new or the manufacturer is determined to make keys available only by order from the company. This type of keying system is referred to as a proprietary keying system. Blanks will not be available until the patent on the new key profile expires. Then a key blank manufacturer can begin producing available blanks IF they think there is a sufficiently large enough market to justify the expense of tooling up a system just to make that blank.

What might be the most simple and cheapest is to look to the manufacturer or dealer to order replacement keys. If you can find a code number or possibly just the serial number the dealer can order the cut keys for you.
