Seat unit plonked onto the frame as purchased:



Front support brackets added using old tank rubbers, plus front of an old saddle added to hook under frame cross piece as per a standard seat:



New pin I made in my lathe and milling machine(Slot at the rear) added to the original catch bracket attached to the frame, plus rear support bracket added:



Original catch added to the seat, cable extended and the original keylock recessed into the back of the seat:





The whole seat unit now just unlocks and lifts off in a similar way to a standard saddle using the ignition key.
It gives the Superlight look with the ease of use of a standard saddle.

I'm actually quite pleased with myself for coming up with this solution.
