How to Remove the Seat of Benelli TNT 600?

First, remove the fixing bolts. For the split type, loosen the threaded sleeve with a hook wrench, then remove the gland bolts on the engine body and pull out the exhaust pipe. For the integrated exhaust pipe, it is mostly connected by threaded sleeves. Simply loosen the threaded sleeve with a hook wrench and pull out the pipe head.
I've removed the seat of the Huanglong 600 several times. First, you need to prepare the right tools, like an 8mm or 10mm socket wrench. There are usually two to three bolts securing the seat at the rear bottom and both sides. Loosen the bolts slowly without forcing them, or you might damage the plastic parts. When lifting the seat, tilt it slightly and lift gently because some models have wiring underneath, like heating elements or anti-theft devices—don’t yank it hard. After removal, take the chance to clean the dust under the seat and the frame—it’s a good maintenance opportunity. When reinstalling, align the holes and tighten the bolts evenly to ensure stability. Remember, the process is simple but requires attention to detail to avoid missing parts that could affect riding comfort.
