    Hi everybody! I bought a XJ750 a couple of weeks ago. I've been riding for a few years, but this is the first bike I've ever owned. Lurking around this forum has helped me a lot!

    So far, I've changed the oil and filter, changed the drive shaft oil, put new plugs in and checked the shoes on the rear brake. It seems to be running a bit rich, but looks like the PO took decent care of it.

    Next on the list is the valves.

    Welcome! Looks clean and complete.

    Good man. You are on the right track. Next step: find a service manual or two.
