The seat lock is located on the left hand side
of the battery tray, in line with the footrest
mounting rail. To remove the seat, insert the
ignition key into the seat lock and turn it
anti-clockwise while pressing down on the
rear of the seat. This will release the seat from
its lock and allow it to be slid rearwards for

Seat Care

To prevent damage to the seat or seat cover,
care must be taken not to drop or lean the
seat against any surface which may damage
the seat or seat cover.
Caution
To prevent damage to the seat or seat
cover, care must be taken not to drop the
seat. Do not lean the seat against the
motorcycle or any surface which may
damage the seat or seat cover. Instead,
place the seat, with the seat cover facing
upwards, on a clean, flat surface which is
covered with a soft cloth.
Do not place any item on the seat which
may cause damage or staining to the seat
cover.
To refit the seat, engage the seat's tongue
under the fuel tank and press down at the
rear to engage in the seat lock.
Warning
To prevent detachment of the seat during
riding, after fitting always grasp the seat
and pull firmly upwards. If the seat is not
correctly secured in the lock, it will detach
from the lock. A loose or detached seat
could cause loss of motorcycle control and
an accident.
