I've always had to do some jiggling to get the seat back on. Never a problem on the CB750 which has a similar design. Today was the worst. I screwed around with it for about 10 minutes and it seemed like it was in the right position, but it just wouldn't latch when I pushed the back of the seat down.
After putting on my analytical hat, I eventually figured it out. When you slide the front end of the seat in, if you push it just a bit too far, it'll seem like it's in the right position, but the back won't latch. The solution was to slide the front into position, then pull it back about 1/4" and bingo!, it latched on the first try.
