    Hi, I'm a new XJ 750 owner, bike purchased from an estate sale, the chap about my age had a heart attack .... so the least I can so for him is keep his bike humming. Guess the mileage (KM) ..... 59,000. Can anyone beat that! I have manuals, and parts coming as I've started my spring tuneup and have some issues that you've all had,for which I really appreaciate this site. (Yes support to follow)

    Welcome a340 driver, I was in Abbotsford for the motorcycle trade show on Saturday. Sure was nice to see no snow and reasonably warm weather.

    You didn't say what kind of issues you are having with the bike?
    What year and model is it or do you know?

    Well - I think Dwayne Verhey is over 300,000 with his 750 Seca, and I'm pretty sure there was someone (Europe I believe) that was even higher....

    look on the other side of the neck. The right side. It should be stamped in.
    I couldn't find mine at first but with a nice bright light I can read it.

    N0, It's also my hotmail name, as there's so many passwords and usernames to try and keep in my small hard drive, I'm recycling.
