Well, actually you don't. If you put a drop or two of oil in the little slide bar that actually does the locking.....put the seat in the proper position......and then push down on the back firmly, or give it a good thump, it should snap into the locked position. :rawk:

Afterthought: If it doesn't work that way, you may have a missing spring or a sticky lock mechanism.

On mine you just put the seat in place then push down firmly on the back on the seat and it snaps right in. No key necessary. If yours doesn't go right in, try Easy Rider's suggestion and lube it up.

My seat has no play in it at all. It also will lock down into place without the key. My bike is a 2005.
