The cable may be unhooked. Have you had it off before? I have seen success with using a paint stir stick to unlock it.

No such thing as a dumb question, just dumb people who ask questions...

Yeah i dont hear a clicking or anything happening on my ninja u hear a click nothing on here

you should be able to feel the resistance from the cable as you turn the key to the right. while holding the key full right, pop the back of the hump with your hand. if it works...great. if not see link above for paint sticks!

No resistance and no click

These things don't always just pop up. Don't get carried away with a screwdriver or anything. Sounding like the previous owner did a no no. Best of luck.

Shouldnt be hard to take off. I know with mine I turn to key and have to use my finger nails to lift the rear of the cowl up to get it to come off. And I am the guy selling a brand new rear seat if you need it. $60 shipped. It has never been sat on, and I bought it from the dealership. It was put on the bike once to make sure it fits perfect in which it does. If your interested, send me a pm.

If you don't have any resistance and the key doesn't return to the starting position then the cable is not
inserted into the release correctly or at all. Don't ask me how I know this.

You didn't say if this bike is new to you. Is this the first time that you have ever tried to remove the cowl?

 

[Zrultima]

Well im trying to get it off wish I could take pics so you can see it

 

[Zrultima]

It does have resistance and does go back to normal position sorry about the caps i broke the button at my work

 

[Zrultima]

I would buy the seat off you as soon as i can get this crap removed as for the link it didnt really help me much since i dont know what there talking about but let me know
