Hi all,

i got my GS a few weeks ago, and so far im happy with it, apart from the previous owner adding a 12v power socket direct to the battery that hangs down from the front right of the seat.

i want to extend and reroute this power point to somewhere around the handlebar area, but i cannot remove the seat.

The red plastic lever has come away from the peg, and despite lifting, pushing and pulling the peg, it just wont release the seat.

Any ideas?

cheers
Phil

I think it does pull off
you need to ‘swivel’ it back towards the seat
it will release - hold it back towards the back of the seal and tug up on the rear of the seat
when I 1st got mine I expected the seat to pop up a bit but it doesn’t - your esentally disengaging a little lock leaver

Well i managed to eventually get the seat off by using a pair of pliers on the plastic peg and tugging the seat as you suggested, so thanks for the info Lewie.

Seems the whole lock was seized up.

Just need to route the cable now.

Cheers
