    Hi.......everyone. Purched a 1983 xj900 last December with 18000 miles vin no jya35h003da000406 for $750. Seams to be all stock except the kickstand and the pet cock. One carburetor had idle jet clogged which I fixed and I replaced the old tires. It has been a great running bike all summer. I love the look of this motorcycle and the performance and handling. There a few winter projects I need help with:

    1Can't get the light switch off the left handlebar to fix high beam light. problem seams to be in chock cable attached

    2Smalle oil leak from gear shifter. Saw a write up on your web sight earlier but cant find it now.

    3 Squealing back break. Disk is scored but could it be other things.

    All so do you still keep a register on the 1983 xj900? I would like to know how many were imported and how many you have identified.

    Tom, I'll check the registry next time I'm on that computer----
    I'll let you know if it's there. If not, I'll let you know if I need any other info.

    For private messages, all you have to do is click on a members name ( in blue by their avatar), then click on "start a conversation" in the middle of the dialog box that comes up.

    Tom, just got yours into the database.... It was not previously registered.
    Yours now currently occupies the #15 slot, bringing the total up to 75 currently registered.
