Im needed to remove the pillion seat to change my indicator.
However my Key/Lock is buggered.
Has anyone managed to remove it another way?
We have tryed to unscrew the box - to be able to get to the main locking unit, but the lock just push's inwards.
Only option I have is a screw driver and wasting time trying to find the 'snag line' to unlock it that way.
I need to do this asap as this is the only thing stoppin me from booking an MOT Confused Sad
Any ideas apart from ripping it off Laughing

I had similar on a GSXR750 where the cable had come off it's mount - for me it was just a case of poking around with a long screw driver for five minutes or so while levering the fairing down slightly for better view.

+ 1 I had to do the same on a cbr1000f once as it was stolen recovered and all the locks were a slightly odd shape. I used an allen key and a torch to find the catch. Thumbs Up
