and how do i get the front seat off

Magic...

Not really, underneath the seat on each side is a small black plastic panel, this is held on with a bolt, undo the bolt and the panel will pop off. With the panels off, you should be able to see another bolt on each side that holds the seat on, unbolt those and then the seat will pop off.

You'll need an allen key, but I cant remember which sizes, pretty sure the sizes you want are in the toolkit though.

I think that is one of the most famous tankslappers. Ive only ever had 4-5 lock to locks when ive had one. So dont expect anything that long.

Man i remember that crash nasty one that! bet there was a pinch mark on the seat where his **** gripped it! that guy was a friend of a friend of a friend apparently on the tt the drill the lockstops on the frame and screw bolts in to limit the travel of the steering! but this gentleman apparently didnt do with dire results. Not sure if that story is true but i dont see why this guy i new would lie.
Nasty things slappers no matter how you look at it ;-)

[on yer bike]

I've had 2, both on my 125, niether were fun, first I went round a corner too fast, second my bike hit a pothole and landed on the front wheel with the back one slightly off the ground, both were hospital jobs, both involved fractured or broken arms/wrists... Simple rule, DON'T DO IT!
