Abstract
A motorcycle has a seat arrangement for at least a driver, of which at least one seat bucket forms a seat with a seat cushion mounted on this seat bucket. The seat, which is firmly mounted on the vehicle and can be swiveled up by way of a hinge, can be fixed in the usage position by means of a locking device. The upwardly swivellable seat is fastened on the motorcycle by way of a holding device which also forms the hinge, and the holding device comprises a gas pressure spring which holds the seat in a swiveled-up position.
