Peugeot Zenith M Seat Latch/Lock

Hi, I recently got my old scooter out of storage (my dads garage) its been sitting there unused for around 8 years or more! I've restored it and re-sprayed it but the only thing missing is a linkage between the seat key lock and the latch!

I was hoping someone on here might have or had a Zenith and could maybe upload a pic of it or try and describe it as I can't find out anywhere what it is or what it looks like.

Any help or advice would be much appreciated!

Thanks

Paul

 

the one on the left is the seat latch lock

oh and welcome to the scooter shack Wizzy

 

Thanks for the quick reply tamiyacowboy, but I meant the bit that attaches that to the latch!

 

this bit ? : http://www.whitedogbikes.com/shop/prod/3730-1999-peugeot-zenith-ls-sport-50cc-seat-release-bracket/

 

Thanks again, I had looked at that part but the latch is slightly different in mine. I was thinking of making one myself but just wanted a pic of one connected up to see the approx shape. Thanks again for your time.

 

your welcome wizzy

what about using something like a manual cable op carb choke lead , hooking that to the seat catch mech and adding a stealthy leaver hidden away. could leave the seat lock in place making it look like the seat lock is in use but infact theres a secret leaver that opens it instead

theres a few scooters that have a cable opperated seat latch system , your would be a non standard add on for ease and saves you shedding out trying to find something to replace the old unit

 

Never thought of that! That's another option to look at. I'll wait a day or two and see if anyone has any pics etc.

Thanks for your help and advice

 

Did you manage to fix the unlocking fuction?
Still figuring out how to connect lock to latch, while having all needed parts.
