Hehe, nice one atokad, I'd missed that one til you pointed me in the right direction :)

Far as the lifting has been going I've still to develop the nack for it, but I'm working on it, thanks for all the tips!  I won't be beaten by a centre-stand!

Spartanbaz - 05' was a good year for 'tiggers'. Good choice! 1) I'm not sure viagra helps for centerstand - in fact, may cause interference. 2) As I'm on the short side (5'8") I find, the already suggested, 'rocking' helps to facilitate the rearward inertia process. 3) you spelled 'center' wrong.  :D  Good luck! j

Hi guys!
So I've got another seemingly stupid question for you all - the seat - how do you get the seat to come off??  I've been trying all sorts of pushing / pulling techniques but don't want to press it any further for fear of bending my key so I thought I'd ask you guys for some tips...

Btw i've been enjoying my Tiger immensely these past few weeks!  I've even got used to the sheer size and weight of it (this was a little daunting at first).  I think I'll be going for a nice long ride this weekend...

Firstly, and please dont take offence, it is the rear seat your pulling, yes?
If it is try pushing down on the back of the seat as you turn the key, it should then release, once the backs off you will see the cable to release the front
