Looking like a Seca II
Tons of pictures here; https://advrider.com/f/threads/the-forgotten-yamaha-seca-ii.1080212/

 

hi here in the uk it is not a seca just an xj 600 n have looked at it better now and i will have loads to buy and i think the exhausts will be the main problem .

That one ought to keep you busy!

 

Oh my! How much did you have to drink? I think the exhaust is going to be the least of the problem. You said you needed a project? You sure got one!
Good luck and have fun.

I think you have a project and then some, good for you. Keep us posted on the progress and I hope she fires right up.

 

Slanted motor is that what they call the 600 diversion? Looks like it will keep you busy for a while.

 

I wonder if the swingarm would fit in xj550. It would be nice to get the disc brake on the rear.

 

That looks to have almost down draft carbs on that, like the VMax?

 

You bought the perfect start to a scrambler or streetfighter conversion.

 

Like one of these....

 

^^^^That is a good looking bike with nice lines... Not too sure how good any of those fenders (front) would work on wet or muddy roads/trails?

 

hi been in the garage for a short time turns out this is a 1995 xj 600 s not an n needs work but came apart ok , just cant get any more done due to the coronavirus wanted to get it powder coated so will just have to clean parts for the next few weeks , realy not going to modifi it just change the color . blue i think some pictures attached can any one spot what is wrong with one of the pictures ( not the broken bit ) .

Not enough bikes in the garage

 

out of the garage now all small parts painted and waiting to be refitted but cant get frame and swinging arm blasted and painted so e bay here i come loads to buy and cash in pocket bigist problems are the rear caliper and exhaust think a delvic exhaust will be fitted just cant find a rear caliper for the right price , sorted new clocks and side panels for £50 will be collecting them soon , the bike will be on the road in months not years like the xj 550 i built ,

stay safe keep in doors and look after yourself.

Looking good....

 

I noticed that the tires are mounted reversed on the painted/coated rims. I could be seeing it strange cause of the photographs. Just wanted to give a heads up.

 

just put them on to move it round will be having new ones fitted but good spot ,
