seca and maxim have the same frame?

this bike is forsale near me and I need a new frame for my 82 XJ650. Is a 82 seca frame the same as a maxims?

 

"Same but different" in various features, especially motor mounts, kickstand mounting, probably centerstand mounting, and rear seat pan rails.......

 

I think the Seca 650 is a completely different animal; on the Maxim the seat rail configuration and mounting as well as the frame from under the tank back is a different shape to allow for the Max's different styling and to achieve a lower seat height.

I don't think a whole lot will swap easily...

 

damn.

 

But that's a pretty nice 650 Seca, I think you should pick it up anyway......

 

yeah that's it. Buy it anyway and sell me the exhaust.

 

If I had the space for another bike I would, it is only 350 bucks.

 

Can you tell us a little more info on e the bike? Does it run, is the title clear, etc?

 

Oh, and here is a dirt cheap, titled Maxim in your area. (Listed as a Seca, no less)

 

You're killing me! I'd buy that bike for $350 in a heartbeat. Even with that hideous rectangular headlight!

Lets see 'bout an 1800 mile road trip??
