Kovix motorcycle security products are now available to UK riders, offering a wide choice of anti-theft devices to suit all situations, we choose to review the KD6 disc lock costing just £19.99.
For more than 10 years, Kovix have designed and manufactured a wide range of intelligent security products in its own factory, which are now being officially distributed in the UK for the first time by The Key Collection, making them available from dealers nationwide, with full spares and technical support.
The full range covers all the popular styles of bike lock – disc locks, chain locks and U-locks.
Kovix alarms are unique, with innovative features specifically designed for motorcycle use;
- Piercing 120db alarm siren – louder than a chainsaw or rock concert – with automatic re-set
- Fully weatherproof module, which can be removed and replaced by the owner
- Option to turn the alarm function on or off, to suit the circumstances
- Long life lithium battery
Kovix also produce a range of practical accessories, including 1.5M cables with an adapter that attaches to their disc locks (£34.99), lock holders, so that disc locks can be carried on the bike while riding between stops (£12.99) and disc lock reminders (£4.99).
Retail prices for alarmed disc locks start at £59.99 for the KD6, (pictured above), which has a steel body and 6mm locking pin.
All Kovix locks come with numbered keys, which can be replaced by most key-cutters using a unique code, without needing to copy the original.

The Review
The KD6 is probably the smallest disc lock we have tried which makes it very portable, at 6mm the pin fits most discs, we have encountered issues in the past where the pin is too large for the disc! No such issues here!
We don’t think having the built-in siren is essential or makes the lock any less attractive to potential bike thieves, the disc lock presence in itself is the deterrent, that said you don’t have to fit the battery if you choose.
However, the KD6 lock build quality is good, fits in seconds and we would recommend it to our friends.
