What a terrible design. As I recall "all" CBs (going back in time to my 1979 CBX inherited similarly troublesome seat locks. I had hassles with my 1992 Nighthawk as well. But not as bad as the CB1100. Frankly, I have no clue why this time it has become such a big problem. In all prior cases, just wiggling the seat would eventually allow the key lock to unlatch the seat. I just can't get it to budget past the 5 o'clock position. ;-((

Can I still try unscrewing the key lock by removing the two break off screws? Are they accessible from the outside of the bike? Isn't the latch cable right behind it once its taken off?
