    I actually talked 2 the owner of those foward controls. N he said he never installed them on a SECA. So he doesn't know if they would fit or not. But he said. The "universal kit" might fit with some mods. I would hate 2 pay almost $200 bux 4 something. That "might" fit!!!

    Ummmm, why?

    The controls on a 750 Seca are almost perfect IMO....

    And it looks like the fitment is very questionable...

    Is the engine in a seca different than in a maxim? The forward controls mount off of the engine mounts so I don't know why it wouldn't fit unless there are some major design differences between the 2 models.

    The front and rear engine mounting hardware and front engine-to-frame brackets are DIFFERENCE between the 650 Maxim and 650 Seca models....however, I don't know how much of a difference exists and how interchangable (or not) that they are.

    I suppose all that truly matters is the measurement eye to eye on the engine mounts. I'm willing to measure mine but I'll bet somebody else can chime in with that info before tomorrow evening when I could get to it.

    JGB 1503 those controls will fit just fine on a seca I have them on mine I actually put the piece that bolts to the engine mount on backwards that is the left on the right and the right on the left doing this moved the controls more forward and little down you just have to put 1/2 spacers between the frame and the mount if you need I can post a close up of mine
