Hmmm. Interesting concept. Not exactly what I was thinking. Thanks for the offer and for putting together all of the literature and pix.

This F3 has some sort of electrico-magnet posts that suck in and release the seat (instead of using bolts tosecure the seat down). I'll try to get a picture of the contraption. The previous owner had wired a little push button switch in the middle of the license plate that you push and that fed current from the battery to these e-magnets and then you could just lift the seat off. Pretty ingeneous, but I think if I were doing it, I'd have tied it into the main switch so you couldn't just walk up and pull the seat off.

 

notny41, when do you think that you could get pics of the that contraption you are talking about?

 

Should be able to get it tonight. Wasn't sure if anyone was curious about it or not.

 

My '91 had an aftermarket, push button releasewhen I bought it. There's not much room under there (and I think the quick release setup actuallydecreased the storage space) but it makes it easy to access. I wish I could tell you where to find one, but I know they're out there.

 

K, so here's some pix. This is on my F3 but I'd guess it would fit exactly the same on an F2:

Electromagnets:



Pushbutton switch - you can see the little hole at the top middle of the license plate where it was just barely sticking out - far enough only for your finger to be able to push it in to activate the magnets:

 

that is very interesting...

 

I could be "tempted" to part with the system for folks who'd like to trick out their ride a little more.

 

notny41. When do you think you will be able to get those pics uploaded on here of that seatpopper contraption??

 

ignore my previous post. I am an idiot. I didnt go to the second page of the thread.
