I installed the seat cover backwards, so the seat cover is under the seat, not over...how do i remove the seat to fix the seat cover?

The seats are simply bolted to the floor. You'll need to remove the track trim pieces to see them. 14mm socket to remove them. The wiring can be disconnected easier once the seat is loose and can be tilted backward.

Hi Ray, Removal of the seat belts requires removal of the seats. Adjust the front seats to the fully backwards position and remove the fixing bolts and then unhook rails at the rear.You will notice a wire cable attached to each seat used to adjust the belt shoulder hight. This must also be disconnected. On later model vehicles there is an automatic retraction unit which pulls the driver and or passenger back into the seat in the event of the air bags being deployed. These connections must also be removed. If seats are electrically operated unplug all connectors. Remove seats and then gently remove plastic door pillar covers. (These are in two pieces for each front belt.) Removal will leave the fixing bolts of retractable part of the seat belt exposed. The buckle side is fixed with one bolt and has an electrical connection which must be disconnected. Hope this is of help? Regards John

Usually configuration on any seat. Slide seat all the way back and take out 2 front bolts. Sometimes the bolts are covered with a plastic cover that needs to be removed. Slide seat all the way forward the remove the 2 back bolts. Then I usually tilt the seat backwards and unhook any wires underneath. Carefully lift seat out of the vehicle being careful not to scratch the car.

The most common cause of this is that the electric heating grid in the seat is defective. To repair this the seat must have the cover removed and a new grid installed, you will likely need to replace the control switch at the same time, also look under the seat and make sure no wiring is damaged on the seat support springs and shorted to ground. The de-trimming (removal of seat coverings) is best left to automotive trim shop as removing and installing a seat cover is a real pain if you don't have the correct tools and skills to remove the retaining clips that hold the cover to the frame, they are called "hog rings".

Unplug the joystick cable under the seat remove the seat if on a post lift handle on right side under seat and lift seat off post if not look for release levers behind front seat post and seat will rotate backwards to give you access to the batteriesdisconnect battery cables and install as on old batteries to new ones and reinstall Hope this helps

there are 2 bolts under rear fender,take those out and slide seat backwards to free from hooks...

There are two seat bolts under the seat that must be removed. Obviously, if the underside of the fender is covered in mud, you'll have to clean it first. A metric socket works best to remove the bolts.

After removal of the seat bolts, lift the back of the seat, then pull straight back; a plastic flange on the front of the seat hooks under the tank, and so you have to pull it backwards to remove it.

With the seat off, removing the battery is pretty easy. A rubber strap holds the battery down; unhook and remove it. Unscrew the lead wires and unhook them (negative first), then pull the battery out.

Install a replacement battery by reversing these steps. Yamaha recommends charging a new battery before installing it.
