    Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

    Not to be a total tard, but can you separate a list of what you have for Mikuni from what you have for Hitachi carbs? I am confused. I would like to see the Mikuni carb list as there may be things I would like to replace on my XJ550's carbs...such as the hardware that is stripped (drain screws, bowl screws, heat shield screws).

    Post it or PM me.

    Thanks...

    Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

    Hey PGH.....well, right now I don't have much in the way of Mikuni specific items. Just what is listed, which is basically carb bowl gaskets, float needle repair kits, and sad to say....that's about it! Although I have a couple of used sets of Mikuni carbs around here, I just haven't had the time to sit down with them and figure out all the available and interchangable parts to them.

    So, parts for Mikuni carbs will come----eventually. If anyone that knows a bit about them and can give me some pointers on them (as far as interchangability between the various XJ models that used them) that would be a great help. I'm pretty sure that some of the hardware pieces (for example, carb hat screws, etc.) actually interchanges between Hitachi and Mikuni carbs---God knows that I've "eyeballed" them more times than I care to think about!----but until I actually put micrometer, caliper, thread gauge, and research book time to them, I'd rather not guess. I'm sure that you would prefer I not guess either!

    So to all you Mik guys out there, be aware that I'm thinking about you and feel your pain.......I'll get it done as soon as I can, thank for your patience and any help you can lend!

    Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

    Hey Chacal... Thanks for your accuracy and promptness on the first order ... i got the old max running kinda rough, but at least is running. I have just sent you another order for more carb parts and some electrical stuff. I am hoping installing new rather than "cleaned" main idle jets and new needle valves will allow it to idle smoother. I know there will be more things to work on before this bike is "proper" but so far i have found all the parts i needed for them (so far stress inducing, pretentious, nagging ... etc) "hitachi" carbs on your list and thats real comforting. Thanks again.

    Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

    Hey Chacal, will this set "HCP535SET4 OEM Yamaha rubber intake Manifold Boots" work on my bike? The description lacks the specific application/destination description but' it matches the numbers "HCP535xxx" which leads me to believe that they may work on my bike. Mine are cracked. Also when replacing those manifolds, do people replace the associated hardware also (nipple plugs, bolts, gaskets ... etc), or just the rubber sleeves?

    Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

    Hey TTF, thanks for the question and my apologis for the delay in responding. Yes, I had a goof in the above part numbers, and have corrected it. For your bike you need part number HCP535SET4, which is going to get you 2 x HCP535LH (#1 & #2 cylinders) and 2xHCP536RH (#3 & #4 cylinders) intake manifolds. Yamaha recently discontinued the HCP535RH manifolds and have superceded them to the HCP536RH part numbers (and for the life of me I can't physically see any difference between the HCP535LH and the HCP536LH manifolds, either, but they carry different part numbers, so be it).

    As far as the accessory pieces, I would absolutely replace the manifold Gaskets, and probably the intake manifold-to-head Bolts. AND MAKE SURE YOU USE ANTI-SIEZE ON THE BOLTS WHEN INSTALLING THEM!!!
    They should be torqued to about 4-5 ft-lbs. when installing.

    Your intake nipple rubber caps and their spring clips can be re-used if in good condition, as well as the cinch clamps that hold the manifolds to the carb throats.
