For Sale XJ PARTS FOR SALE---FOR ALL MAXIM, SECA, AND TURBO MODELS

Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

Should be Hitachi HSC32's, look for an Hitachi logo stamped in the side of the carb body just above the float bowl.

 

Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

You should have Hitachi HSC32 carbs. Look at the carb "hats" (technically known as Diaphram Covers---the chrome things on the top of the carbs) and if they have a "sloped" rear edge (rather than completely rounded) then they're Hitachi's................

Beeker and Brew, thanks for the kind words, glad that things got there in one piece, and let me know if I can help again!

Beeker---you'll love the colortune plug, neatest little thing in the world. Be gentle with it. Now get yourself a Carbtune (synch sticks) and you'll be the envy of your entire community. Wealth and fame will soon follow. You'll cut a full second or two off your 0-60 time. I've had reports that a Carbtune owner's own personal "member" may even grow somewhat, without the use of those dangerous pills..........

 

Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

Got my order VERY QUICKLY! Thanks sooooo much Chacal! I was worried this was going to be hard tracking down parts, you couldn't have made it easier.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND CHACAL TO ANYONE NEEDING PARTS!

P.S. Thanks also for labeling everything in separate baggies, that helps a ton!

 

Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

It's my turn to give mad props to Chacal. We went back and forth several times in PM trying to diagnose the problem with my leaking petcock. Once that was done, I ordered a wave washer and O-ring for the selector lever, and the silicone grease. I also sanded down the back of the selector lever, as it seemed to have warped just a hair. (Apparently, they do that.) Everything is installed, and appears to be holding.

On a side note, I got the impression he was a bit dismayed at having to use what he referred to as "toilet chemicals" for our bikes (he gets his silicone grease from a plumbing supplier); I suggested he look at it a different way.

They're not "toilet chemicals"... we're giving our bikes a boob job.

 

Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

Hey Guys, thanks for the props, mad and otherwise!

Glad everything got there quickly, and solved some problems.

No dismay, I'm glad that there's products out there that work. And even though I refer to it as "plumber's grease", it actually has lots of uses, I just so happen to get it from a plumbing wholesaler because that's the cheapest place I could buy it. But it's used in food service equipment and industrial applications, too.

Heck, I even found a source for some nice little rubber idle mixture screw plugs to substitute for those horrible aluminum discs that come with the replacement carb rebuild kits (who wants to use those things since they're impossible to remove?). These rubber plugs are actually modified ballcock valve washers from---you guessed it---the plumbing supply wholesaler.

So whether it's the pet cocks, or the ball cocks, we can all be grateful that our friends in the plumbing business saw fit to insure that our bikes can still get 1st class boob jobs, even after all these saggy years!

BTW, did I mention that I now have the Dyna Coils in stock, $119.00/pair?

Thanks again everyone, stay tuned........


Oh, final note: as schmuckaholic can testify, with PROPER and THOROUGH efforts in the rebuild process, the factory Yamaha petcocks can easily be rebuilt successfully. The trick is using the right techniques, and the right parts, and, of course, buying those parts from me.....

Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

Thanks guys, glad to hear that everything arrived A-Ok!

 

Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

I was looking over some of your props and replies... When my Colortune plug gets here, what if I dont need a bigger member? I dont want to scare the ladies off . If I keep it in the garage instead of under my pillow, will I be fine?

Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

Well, you can go to

www.rifle.com

and use their "Search By Make" function and look up the SPORT fairing for the 1982 Yamaha XJ650.....otherwise the URL is 10 miles long:

Hope that works!

 

Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

Thanks for the parts, just got em in! Valve job and carb tune here I come!

 

Re: MAXIM PARTS FOR SALE

There ya' go! Someone who will have an EXCEPTIONALLY running bike.

Why?

Because he's going to adjust his valves before/as part of his carb cleaning and tuning procedure.

Just like the manual advises.

Report back what happens Jack, and thanks for the business!
