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.
Yes, you can potentially fit an 83 Yamaha Maxim 750 gas tank on an 83 Yamaha 750 Seca, as both bikes share similar engine components and chassis designs. However, there may be slight differences in mounting points or fuel line connections that could require some modification. It's important to check for compatibility regarding the tank's shape and capacity to ensure it fits properly. Always consult a motorcycle mechanic or experienced enthusiast for specific advice on modifications.
The 1982 Yamaha Maxim XJ 750 typically requires about 3.0 quarts (approximately 2.8 liters) of oil when performing an oil change, including the oil filter replacement. It's important to use the recommended oil type, which is usually a 10W-40 motorcycle oil. Always check the owner's manual for specific details and recommendations.
on craigs list yesterday sept 6 in medford Oregon there is a complete wireing harness for your bike
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
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.
1990 Yamaha Virago 750 is 55 hp.
The spark plug gap for a Yamaha Maxim 750 is typically set at 0.8 to 0.9 mm (0.031 to 0.035 inches). It's important to check the specific service manual for your model year, as the gap can vary slightly depending on the engine configuration. Proper gap settings ensure optimal performance and efficiency of the engine. Always adjust the gap carefully using a spark plug gap tool for best results.
I THINK that you will be able to fit an exhaust from the Yamaha XJ650/750 air-cooled Maxims. They share the same frame, the difference being that the Maxim-X is liquid cooled. Getting the exhausts to clear the radiator shouldn't be a problem as the radiator sits above the exhausts (I have the 750 and it shares the same frame, there are mounts on the frame for the radiator). A good place to find out for definite would be www.xjbikes.com. I'm sure someone will have tried the swap on there.
There should be a sight glass on the left lower side of the motor. The oil should be visable in the glass.
