I dunno how to remove the pillion Seat?

Hi,

Wanted to look at the electronic parts, but cant get the seat off!
From a manual it seems that you have to pull the backside of the pillion seat up???
But that is not giving way.
[bike has been sitting outside for some years, and it shows]
[I dont want to destroy the thing at the 2nd day :oops: ]

Beware that the key turns anti-clockwise! And that the lock is near the gold canister for the rear shock..

Also , pressing down on the back end of the seat as you turn the key helps take the pressure off the latch and cable so there is less chance of bending / breaking the key
Rubber side down, Red side up is my preferred riding style.

Yes!

Once I understood that there should be some lock, I found a cable sticking out, near the right blinker cable, under the mudguard.
Cable still works!
& No keys needed.


Thanks, Wiemer.
