Seat latch XS650B

[chrispyduck]

I can't get my seat to pull down into position when closed. Sitting on it is fine, it's just when stationary and off the bike the seat looks to tilt as if the latch needs to pull it down further.
The photo shows the latch fully engaged and locked into position. Is there anyway of getting the latch to engage so it pulls the seat down further.
Hopefully I've made it clear what I'm trying to achieve.
Thanks
Chris

Looks like the latch is hooking on the top plate rather than the catch further down. Note the witness mark about a half inch up the latch.

Latch is not engaged in this pic. Different pic in below thread, why the two?
