"trunk" not opening
so i am new to bikes and i don't know the correct term for the storage compartment.. but it won't open.
I look inside underneath the tail light and i think i see the problem, there is nothing connected to the key hole when it turns.. is the black cable supposed to be hooked up to it?
and how do i fix?

If your key isn't working you will need to disassemble your tail so you can take the rear seat off. My friend had the same problem (when turning the key the rear seat would not detach). Here are some pictures to help you from the service manual.
Page 2-2:
Once detached you will need to reconnect the metal line to the key hole.
Good Luck!

you dont have to dissasemble. I cant believe you even got a picture of it.
take a metal coat hanger, use the hook and reach up there and pull on the lock mechanism. it happens all the time. once you get the seat off, just reattach it. maybe ziptie it or something so it doenst slip back off
