    On my 82 xj550 it would have been under the seat but you wouldn't know it at first glance. It is just a small tray directly in the middle of where the seat sits. If you have this plastic tray, that is probably it.

    Next to the battery?

    First off, if you have an '85 Maxim "X" then it's a 700.

    Look in the fiche: http://www.yamahapartshouse.net/pages/p ... parts.aspx

    Under "SIDE COVER" there's a large box, Ref #5, 1AA-21171-00-00
    BOX, TOOL. It looks like the battery might go in it too, and the tool kit off to one side? Access might be from under the front seat, hard to tell.

    Need a Max-X owner to chime in here...

    Aha. No wonder there was no 750 "X" in the fiche. My apologies.
