Hello. I'm just bought a used 2000 SV650 that only has about 3600 miles. I've ran into a few problems that I didn't notice. The biggest one right now is that I cannot get under the rear seat. I don't have the owner's manuel, but my understanding is that the key is supposed to unlock the seat. The locking mechanism seems to be stripped out. What can I do now? Is there another way to get the seat off? Has anyone had this problem. It has me pretty frustrated as I think I might need to change the spark plugs in this bike. Please help, the previous owner won't call me back (bad sign)!
