This isn't technically a question, but I'll take a stab at answering what I think you're asking. There are three positions on that bike's petcock. They are: On, Res, and Pri. Meaning regular tank, reserve tank and prime. There's no Off because the petcock is vacuum driven, meaning if the engine isn't running, there is no vacuum, so the petcock is off, it doesn't need a setting for that. On is what you use normally, Res if you run low on gas, Pri is only used if you want to get fuel in the carbs without the bike running for some reason, or draining the tank or something. Some people use that setting if their petcock is bad, because you can run it that way if you have a vacuum leak caused by a bad diaphragm, but it can cause some problems, flooding, etc. Hope that's what you needed.
I measured my 83 midnight maxim 750 and it stands 31 in. from ground to top of seat
Almost every motorcycle petcock has a main or "ON", reserve or "RES" and off or "OFF" position marked on it. If the markings are not there, check your fuel lines. The main line will begin on a higher point on the gas tank than the reserve. The off position is halfway between the main and reserve positions.
on craigs list yesterday sept 6 in medford Oregon there is a complete wireing harness for your bike
yes! I still own a 1982 model year, and it still performs well. This is a bike that was well ahead of the game in its design at the time.
I have a marago 750 lol. I didn't know it but my maxim 82 750 had the shocks, calipers, rear tire and possibly tree of a virago. I discovered it when getting break pads.
ya no problem
74mpg

82.00 HP (59.9 kW)) @ 9000 RPM
If it's the 750 (and assuming its the same as the '83), it's 81 HP with 67 nm of torque. They're pretty snappy little bikes
