Handle Under The Pillion Seat
 
Yes I am an SV newbie and this may be a silly question !!

I am in the process of installing a new tail tidy on my K4 Naked.

Under the pillion seat is a round handle with a rod running from in it down the inside of the rear fender.

Can anyone please tell me what it is and what is it for !!

Many thanks in advance

Andy :)

sounds like you're desribing the pillion seat catch and cable. That rod you desribe could be the hounsing for the locking cable. Simple to check, with the seat off - turn your key in the lock and see if you can see it moving.

Yes it is the tank prop thank you gents.

I'm sure I will find plenty of other stupid questions to ask along the way !!

Although as they say if you don't ask ..................
