On the right side of the frame tube just in front of the rear shocks upper mount there will be a flat plate with three holes in it onto which the seat lock is bolted.
Two strokes, its just that simple.

It's under the seat. Where the seat latches.

Seat and helmet lock are one assembly. I'm pointing at the helmet lock and the seat lock is on top. As you see, the 3 bolts are attached through it to the frame.
