#95609 illstate (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 12 seat lock in the ignition 5 Months, 1 Week ago   I have the 06 Road star, and I have been unable to get the seat to open using the switch in the ignition. I know I need to get a manual, but if anyone has any ideas on how to get my seat open I would appreciate hearing them. Thank you, Illstate   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #95610 Tealw1 (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 269 Re:seat lock in the ignition 5 Months, 1 Week ago   Don't push down on the key when you're turning it. You may need to push down on the front of the seat a little to help release some of the strain on the latch. You may even need to push on the seat and let off a little while turning the key. Once you do get the seat off, you should squirt a little WD-40 on the latch. That should make it easier in the future.   Logged     CAGUAMA-Big and Cool   The administrator has disabled public write access. #95611 Pop Rivet (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2757 Re:seat lock in the ignition 5 Months, 1 Week ago   without pressing down on the ignition switch turn it hard to the left..pressing down on the nose of the seat helps it should pop the seat   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/06/25 11:26 By Pop Rivet.   2009 Ultra Classic HD...2005 Silverado Road Star Listen to the Road Star   The administrator has disabled public write access. #95612 smhowse (User) NOPE, it's a Roadstar! Platinum Boarder Posts: 1447 Re:seat lock in the ignition 5 Months, 1 Week ago   Do NOT push the key down when you turn it to the left and push down and wiggle on the front of your seat at the same time. First few times are usually hard then it loosens up. Took me and the guy I bought my bike from 2 hours to figure it out Steven   Logged     2005 Midnight Silverado   The administrator has disabled public write access. #95613 smhowse (User) NOPE, it's a Roadstar!

Push the key down and then let it spring back up then turn it to the left as you hold the front of the seat down. You should feel it click then pull it up.   Logged     2006 Midnight.

We have a mechanic at my office and he could not get it unlocked. The bike left me stranded the next day with a loose battery cable. I had to call my dad. I told him how it was supposed to unlock, but I could not get it to do so. He walked straight to the bike turned the key and the seat popped up. You may think I was doing it wrong, or I'm an idiot, but the truth is my dad has super powers! I lube the lock all the time now so I don't have to call my dad again. It's ok when you're a teenager, but when you are 32 then it's a little much. -Chad   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #95625 illstate (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 12 Re:seat lock in the ignition 5 Months, 1 Week ago   I may have to call your dad Chad. I tried everything written above, and still no luck. I think my switch may be broken.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
