Kz900 seat stand

#1 PostAuthor: 1975-S1C » Thu Feb 04, 2016 9:30 pm

The kz900 that acquired recently hasn't got a seat stand and the seat folds right open and seems to rest on the side panel. Obviously not ideal, yet I can't see anything on either the underside seat or the frame under the seat where a seat stand might be missing. There must be a seat stand of sorts surely ?
Cheers
Paul

Hmmm, I must be missing something.
I have the hinges with those little tangs on them, but I dont see what they do. In the pictures in the other thread the seat is open and those tangs are doing nothing ! Can you explain how it's supposed to support the seat please ?
Cheers

The tangs are supposed to hit the fixed part of the hinge on the frame stoppping it hitting the side panel etc.
However it worked so well they didn't carry it forward......
