      Hi Artur, I can’t remember off hand but will find it out for you. As I recall it was the original code from Yamaha.

      They are marvins, readily available in most places.

    I have a 1980 XJ650. It doesn't look anything like that bike, style-wise. Sloped gas tank and Maxim side cover. Were there 2 models? Maxim. And Seca?

      Hi yes the maxim was more popular in the USA.

      It’s not as I couldn’t find the paint code but it’s a very close match

    Very nice! I'm doing a 1982 Seca 650. What did you do to clean up the wheels? Thanks.
