How to Take Off the Seat of a Kawasaki Lakota Sport

The Lakota Sport is a four-wheel, all-terrain vehicle manufactured by Kawasaki. The Lakota Sport features a 290 cubic centimeter, air-cooled, four-stroke engine, electronic ignition and a five-speed transmission with reverse. If the seat on the Lakota ever rips or if you just want to spruce up the ATV, replacing it with an aftermarket seat is an option. It takes about 15 to 20 minutes to remove the old ATV seat.
