I believe the helmet lock has fewer pins, much like the valet key that was included with my 2011 Toyota Corolla. The valet key doesn’t have the teeth needed to open the glove box… or trunk if I lock it (half turn the opposite way after closing). This keeps a valet or other guest driver out of your personal stuff when handing the key over for them to park your car or temporarily drive it somewhere.

If the helmet lock is made similarly then I would not expect that key to work with the ignition. Perhaps the extra teeth can be cut into it according to the key code so that these keys are not wasted.
