I had a similar problem with my 81 xj750RH seca. It'll shift into 1st and back into neutral but when I try to go into second the gears clatter...
thanks for the tip, that site has a great wealth of info
Got on it to ride the other day and the pedal wouldn't shift out schemof 1st gear. I could only get it into 1st or neutral. I'm assuming it's a...
Do you mean the enrichment plunger ? no spring in the pilot jet. Or do you mean the mixture screw ?
Do you still have that stuff
Looking for the auxiliary headlight that mounts below the square main headlight
Try squirting acetone 50/50 with ATF into the plug holes. the rings often get stuck on bikes that have sat for a while
The after market Chinese coils that were described on ebay as compatible with xj750s were garbage. They tested at 5.2 ohms primary and 15k ohms...
Will the CB750 coils work on xj650 maxim and seca? the Chinese coils, described as compatible with xj750s, were terrible. The bike ran rough and...
I got a set of coils off ebay that were advertised as compatable with an xj750. they were cheap so I figured I'd take a risk. they ohm out at 5...
I have had, at one time or another, 5 xj650s Maxims and Secas and 2 xj750 Secas. They all fired 1 and 4 and then 2 and 3 together
I bought a set of ignition coils off ebay last week. I tested them with a multi tester and need an opinion of the results. the resistance across...
Thanks man. I was able to blast out the pilot fuel circuit by blocking the air jets with toothpicks and spraying carburetor cleaner into the pilot...
Someone posted pictures of an Hitachi HSC 32 carburetor cutaway. any links to that ? I saw it a while back now i can't find it. It was in the tech...
Dave, any chance you might have a cutoff relay in good condition ? My starter button goes dead from time to time but will work temporarily if I...
I saw a video where a guy blasted carburetor cleaner Through the pilot jet while blocking one of the air jets with a toothpick. Anyone have link...
Sometimes the starter button freezes. If I pull the cutoff relay from its connector, tap it against the bike frame and put it back, the button...
I'm looking for a good wiring harness for an 82 xj650 maxim. I have a shed full of xj parts and can trade something of roughly equal value or send...
I completed my xj750seca project, looks great. I'll post pics soon. Anyway, I have an xj650 that I almost finished a couple of years ago. The...
I tapped on each caliper a little and the wheel spun a bit freer. I wonder if the road vibration on the lower forks would do the same.
I checked with a peice of tape on the top of the tire. Wheels propped up, I spun the wheel by hand the tape showed about 1.2 revolutions before...
750 seca brakes again. All cleaned out w/ SS brake lines, MC rebuilt w/chacal kit (return hole clear). Rebuilt calipers w/new pistons, seals and...
With all the brake parts either rebuilt or replacced; calipers rebuilt w/new Pistons, seals, lube pins etc. master cylinder rebuilt w/chacal's kit...
Brakes are not locked. the wheel can be pushed around. my question refers to a you tube presenter who demonstrated a way to tell if the dragging...
Are the calipers used on the xj750r seca and the xj750 maxim the same ?
So, are you selling parts off this bike or trying to sell it whole ?
was wondering if the pistons from the xj759 seca calipers are the same as pistons from the calipers of other xj bikes : xj750 maxim, xj650 seca ,...
That's what I did . I finally got some good resistance in the lever after several attempts. I put a stand under the front forks to let the wheel...
I have let the fluid drain down from the reservoir while vibrating the lines with my sander from time to time. When I release the lever to bleed...
I need an 81-83 plastic headlamp bucket for an 81-83 xj750 rh seca
I copied a trick from youtube. Injected fluid with a syringe first from left lower bleeder to left upper bleeder. then, from right lower bleeder...
at what point in the bleeding process is the reservoir cover reinstalled ? can more fluid be added at this point ? Is the proper level of fluid in...
I don't know if this is the easiest way to relax the calipers' grip on the rotor, but, I pulled the calipers and pried the pads apart. then once...
So how do I get the pressure to release so I can start over ?
OK, I'm having strange results with those xj750 seca front brakes. I pumped fluid up from the bottom bleeder to the top bleeder on both calipers...
Thanks.
conflicting info on bleeding I'm wanting to fill the lines by gravity. Which is the best position for the lever to allow brake fluid to drain...
So, what have you got left of the 650 seca parts ?
I just saw your post. I guess I'm a month late. anyhow I have a set of carbs for that model bike as well as the lock box that goes under the rear...
Anyone got an xj650 seca kickstand switch in working order ?
I believe the sidestand relay is a closed circuit and needs power to open it. The cutoff relay is an open circuit that needs to be closed
Is the wiring harness available ? what condition ?
complete wiring harness ?
if neutral light is on that would mean neutral switch is good,right ?
thanks for the tip. That's helpful I'll check all that
new ign. switch, battery. tested wiring from start button through the safety system red/white, blue/white- black,kill switch and start button...
Well, the reason I was testing the relays in the first place was that when I turned the key, the neutral light came on, horn worked and blinkers...
Yes, I will get a fresh multi tester from Harbor freight. and try again. but all my relays came from parts bikes that may have sat outside for...
82 650 seca. was getting no starter button, checked the wiring to the cutoff and kick stand relays. wiring all good. had lights horn etc. but no...
Yes I do,I'm working on two bikes now. An 82 maxim (blowing the signal fuse) and an 82 seca which has horn,neutral light and signals when the key...
