If you want to see a Rad bike with the same motor... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamaha_FZX750 . I still lust after this bike, lol. Good luck...
Here we go with another stator question :D My bike has been running ok these past few years, but the other day I decided to check the voltage...
I just came here to say, wow... Would it be worth more left in the crate and sold to a Yamaha Museum, I wonder?
Just going through some stuff and found these parts from my 83 XJ650... These might help finish off a restore or, something, right? Right side...
Ugh try this one: [MEDIA]
This is a super old thread, but I just watched that episode, lol. Season5 Episode 22 has a Grey 750 Seca... I was bored and threw this together:...
Well that's a hell of a starting point. Good luck with the go-through. I have a friend here who said the same thing, regarding the RD resemblance...
Here's another......
Update on clutch: Seized cable! Replaced and no slip + no more stumble (for those who remember me from back then). Today was a good day. Ride...
Hi everyone, I just figured out something that has been plaguing my bike for probably the better part of 4 years... I had been having a rising...
Hi everyone, Some familiar faces here, some new ones! I just got the 750 back on the road and just fixed a hanging float issue which was...
I felt your pain, although not like that. Is that just for liability? I paid around 1200/year for my seca in kitchener back in 2013. Ontario...
Oh my god. I was there just after it happened and had been held up by the crash (heading north to do some camping at the national park just...
Hey guys, Been a while since I signed in here, but I'm still in the club! Wasn't riding last year for various (monetary) reasons but I've been...
Welcome! What part of the island are you living in? St. John's here, so if you're close I'd be happy to help!
Hey guys, Silly question I know, but an engine should stall once the airbox opening is covered, correct? The Seca is away for the season, but...
Keeping the thread alive... One of the (many) scenic views from the Eastern Avalon Peninsula, Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada. [ATTACH]
That's a good idea. Never hurts to have a bit of PB blaster or liquid wrench do some of the work for you. Should come loose pretty easily though...
It' will hold but that won't help us in solving the question about the ticking noise. If you snapped the bolt but have a piece still exposed you...
I agree, go with a heavy piece of *INSULATED* wire :). The thing about the tool is that to remove it you need to turn the engine backwards, which...
I've got a set of beauty pieces (chrome airbox side covers) from a 83 650 Max for sale if you're interested. Might fit, although I'm not sure if...
Yep, that's how it's supposed to be. Sounds like the problem lies in how that canister is or isn't connected (is that california emissions gear...
Something is holding the revs higher (air leak, binding butterfly, poor sync). I'll start shooting from the hip now :) Are all the vacuum caps...
[jumping in] Solenoid could be connected the wrong way also. I had that problem on my maxim, just switching the battery connections solved that....
Ha, what a troll you are Polock. I'm pretty sure he won't run it with the open exhaust and if he does we'll all get in line to slap him with a...
That's great news! If you have any doubt about timing post up a video and let the pros (not me) take a listen.
Would sea foam gum up the exhaust flow or the disk gap? Oh my, this thread is intriguing so far...
I might have a right hand side one if you're still interested. My maxim went down on the left side so the right hand emblem is pretty much *new*....
Wouldn't transporting a bike like that seriously burn up his transmission/rear end?
Awesome pics. You guys need to get a roll by video, all those XJs passing would sound wicked...
Damn, do you do hand modelling? :P I had some cut for mine at the local locksmith. Unless you want to get one cut from OEM Yamaha blanks they...
How are the revs? Any stumbling as you really lean on it under load?
looks good! I see the seca hiding in the corner ;)
That's the first time I ever heard of using the 'joints' with pods. Interested in hearing the results (although my airbox is happily installed...
3900 and you'll have to pay extra for fenders... F me...
Holy frig, wonderful looking and probably pretty rare blue edition. Is that a full stainless supertrapp system too? Sounds like something got...
New horn... Loud! New Bars... Straight!
Yes sir, The large side points at the desired mode. Down for on Res for 'reserve' Pri for 'spill', I mean prime, for free flowing gas =D...
Wow, and when he's done scraping his knees he could have a game of Hockey!
8mm, roger that! Never heard of Tsawwassen before, talk about a cross country connection ;). Thanks! Marcel
Hey all, trying to finish up mounting my aftermarket horn to get away from using my OEM (inside the headlight) horn on my 750 seca. Does anyone...
My Maxim's starter got the marbles... Rebuild... My Seca had a slippy starter clutch... PO split it's cases but it still happened and I think...
she's running humina humina...
Hey guys, Finally got warm enough (+16c) and dry enough to get the Seca ready for summer. We don't have much time to ride out here in the middle...
Welcome from St John's, NL. My bro works for Syncrude and while he doesn't own a XJ (he's got one of those fancy fz09s), there are a couple of...
she starts today! (hopefully)
Those machined "butterflies" or whatever they are look dreamy... Wow!
Sounds like it may be out of alignment, and that would obviously give you hell while trying to adjust/sync. Try to loosen the two screws and move...
I need that shirt, but just the opposite version :(
Do you have the muffler to re-install? To make it easier you need this bike as close to stock if you're still going through setup/sync. It's...
