Sorry gangatahats, no rotors just a set of sweet calipers from an 82 XJ750 with anti-dive.

PM sent.
I am cleaning out the shop so I can start another project bike. I have a large tub (around 50 lbs) full of 80-82 Seca 750 parts (carb cluster,...
I'm riding the Gixxer and the street fighter, the Seca is fun but they look at me funny when they pass me on the track at Spokane Raceway park....
So I am letting my Seca go, I don’t get to ride it as much as it should be ridden, so it needs to go to a good home. 1,700.00 to XJBike members....
I'm 6'2" and 30 Lbs. heavier than the new owner, I've run on a low tire before and never rolled a tire off a rim. my guess, tire was way low and...
What year XJ650? Rebuild them!! They are easy enough, and you probably don't have the anti dive valves like the Seca 750’s (parts are so hard to...
a 90 CBR600 street fighter, the 95 CBR600F3 and the wifes KIA Spectra 5 for picking up parts and gettin groceries.
Not only do I like working on my bikes, it's a good thing I do. None of the shops around here will work on anything this old. wish I lived closer...
Re: Yes... another chopper/bobber 550 nice job on the frame, it looks clean and has some nice lines
you need an led flasher relay
my thought and prayers go out to him and his family

I just did this upgrade about a month ago on my 82 Seca 750, the first thing you have to figure out is do you want to keep your stock Seca hand...
On the 750 seca I had to have the engine out, couldn"t do it any other way.
they were putting new wings on the USPS jet that has been taking Len's parts up north to Mass. :) Len has been wearing their jets out with all his...
nice fuse box RiderXJ, is that the one chacal has for sale?
nice work Rick, I love fabricating parts and tools, lucky for me that's what I get to do at the university for part of my day
a really nice job, wish I was close enough to consider buying it.
sounds like you have a little work ahead of you kcoop, good luck and keep us updated on the progress.
soda blasting is a great idea, it won't hurt your heads, valves. etc.
WTF is right!!! To me; It looks like they took a 1950’s concept car, chopped it down and removed half the wheels.
Re: Yes... another chopper/bobber 550 that streched frame looks really nice, can't wait to see it all powder coated.
keep pulling your lever back and forth 6 or 7 times to build pressure, like pumping the brakes in your car/truck. it sounds like you have a lot of...
I would do stainless also but the PVC is a great idea to get the air intake and configuration worked out.
Awsome bike!
That is a really sweet solution for an intake manifold, nice job.
Chacle has steel braided lines ready to go, in colors too, and his shipping is so fast you’d swear he shipped them before you ordered them. You...

most of the home/shop sandblasting cabinets require 15-25 CFM, on the other hand if you own a pressure washer and want to clean up non-ferrous...
how old is the gas? it sounds like you need a new relay.
put it on the center stand and drain some till you can see the top of your level in the sight glass
If you are going to run a sandblaster for any amount of time you want a rotary vein compressor or a compressor that cranks out more CFM than the...
XJBike Members are the best!!! I lost my torque rod bolt sometime last Wed. Later that afternoon at really low speed on a dirt road (Thank you,...
I like your bike a lot, and I would also be interested if you were closer to the west side of the country.
glad you are alright, and your bike too. keep the rubber side down and have a fun safe trip.
So I pull on to a gravel road today after work, tapped the rear brake pedal and the pedal dives away from my foot. I come to a quick stop as I...
Are you talking about a sink EDM (electronic discharge machine)? we have one in the metallic's lab at school, they work really well for removing...
not so much a bounce, more like it's waving at me;)

The braided stainless lines and the bar mounted master cylinder improved my braking power so much I am almost doing stopies.
My intake and manifold rubbers look new too, both sets, 16 total. the ones that are on the girl now and the ones on the spare. guess I got lucky too:)
Rode the XJ750 Seca a couple hours north on Thurs. to the Aunt's cabin on Priest Lake, ID. spent the next three days riding a Yamaha wave runner...
that is a sweet bike, my wife is looking for a project that size as well, hope I can find her one that looks that good to start out.
I replaced my Seca cable to master cylinder front brakes with a full-on master cylinder to steel braided lines, I just cut the brake lever ears...
I will be following this topic as well.I am also intrested in the final outcome,
