    I just tried to order 4 needle & seat units to get an '82 750 Maxim going again and they said they were discontinued! Anyone know how to get a hold of these?

    Are you talking about the parts in the float bowl? Those are part of rebuild kits which are readily available. If you are talking about actual main jet needles and emulsion tubes, I just ordered some from Chacal / xj4ever.com.

    Click on the engine logo in the upper right hand corner.
    XJ4Ever- click on Chacal's name (the author) and send him an e-mail/ PM and tell him what bike you have and what you need.

    Your life just got better! :lol:
    He is THE MAN, he has what you need and delivers quick.

    I second (third?) Chacal. Just ordered a fuse box form my XJ1100. Came in quicker than expected. He has every part/piece for these bikes.
