Magnum Seat Lock

FONT=Verdana]Yes the Magnum does have a cable on the ignition switch that unlocks the seat. The lock mechanism takes some getting use to and can be stubborn. First make sure that you are turning the key all the way ccw and NOT pushing in on the key. If it still doesn't work:[/FONT]

Remove the 4 screws holding the lower center panel below the handlebars.



Carefully remove the cover by gently prying up and and pushing the piece towards the seat. Release the tabs from both sides. (It may be necessary to push down in the center to release the locking tabs.)



Next open right side glove box and remove the 2 screws for the top side panel.



Very carefully pry the panel upwards and back to release the clips.



Now looking down where you just removed the panel you will see the cable coming out of the ignition switch. Loosen the lock nut and lengthen the cable by rotating the barrel. Turn in small increments and test your adjustment.
