Loads of info on here, but first read this http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/ ... =3&t=29471 :D
If you only want to remove the seat, it's just 4 bolts.

If you look at his name John - it may give you a clue to location :wink:

Don't try and take it out on your own it's very heavy - it takes two to lift it - and welcome to the forum and to ownership.
Be nice to everyone they might be nice back.

there just about the right weight to shove one under each arm and pump them biceps you bunch of weaklings, ive lifted heavier sacks of spuds. ive picked up a car off the ground that weighted 3/4 tonne. although that was a long time ago. come to think of it thats how much the bleeding seats weigh.

Welcome Dave, undo bolts, lift seat out.
