    Beautiful bike. I'm working on a XJ650J, XJ750 Maxim, and a XJ1100 Maxim and REALLY hope I can get them looking mint like your eventually. Polishing the engines is going to be a huge PITA! Nice work

      Thanks ,No... hand cleaned with fine emery cloth,replaced some covers and had some clear coating done.You have to remember that its always been garaged and has 9k on it,having some good genes to work with helped a lot.

      What did you clear coat? The raw engine?
