    So my 82 XJ 650 Seca seems to be missing its ring nuts on the exhaust. Any idea where I can locate a replacement or a substitute?

    Thanks for any help.

    I checked before and it was listed as discontinued. I have a lead on a local parts bike so that might have to suffice.

    Describe exactly what you are needing. Do you mean the ring clamps themselves, or the flanged double-height nuts that hold the ring clamps on?

    On inspection, it seems the PO installed a different header but did not reinstall these aluminum pieces so there was a large gap between the flange on the pipe and the exhaust ports on the head. The silver aluminum cast pieces is what I'm looking for but I've sourced parts locally. It's referred to in different manuals as the "flange mount" and also the "ring nut"

    I found some locally via salvage.
