Embarassing foc up

[Val]

Okay so bought a MT09 and very happy with it but I have made a bit of a cock up.
I have managed to jam the seat, I have removed it once before when I checked the bike over and I think I did not locate it correctly when putting it back on.  :o .[size=78%]    I turn the key and lift and pull backwards like you are meant to but it only moves about 5mm then it is solid. [/size]
I have tried thumping it and wiggling a piece of metal rod about underneath the gap in vain hope but the bugger is stuck.
Any ideas or help would be much appreciated.


I have tried to post this on the MT09 forum but even though I am a member when I try to post on the forum it just keeps telling me I have not done the image capture correctly, after 5 goes I gave up

I believe it is not unlocked properly, try with right hand turning the key and with the left one hit the back of the seat with your fist downwards, this will make the key turn more unlocked it and the spring will open the seat. You need to push a bit more down the seat at that back and try unlocking with the key.

If thay fails and your latch is stuck see here how to open it: http://www.fz09.org/forum/6-fz-09-genera...aha-3.html
