    This is a long shot, but does anybody have a scan of the XJ750-J Maxim road test from Cycle Magazine's July 1982 edition? I can't find it anywhere, I guess old road tests haven't made the jump to the Internet.

    Thanks!

    Cool! The drawing of the YICS is the best part. I've read a lot about it, but "a picture's worth a thousand words" and all that.

    This guy sells back issues of old magazines and has that one: http://www.dadsvintageads.com/catalog.p ... nda#IMAGES

    A couple of years ago I bought an online "compilation" of all the road tests done on the Seca 550s back in the day, it came as a "secure PDF" wasn't very expensive and I cannot for the life of me find the link to the place I got it from. I'll keep looking.

    Here's a larger version of the YICS diagram:
