Yamaha Other description
up for sale is my 1981 Yamaha XJ550 Maxim. i just finished the build and it's time to focus on a new project. please feel free to ask any questions or stop by to have a look. there is nothing to hide.
And nope, it's not one of those "needs carbs adjustments" bikes :) All color tuned and synced. Float level is spot on as well. Bikes fires right up and idles smoothly. i put about 100 miles on it and the number goes up video to bike running: https://youtu.be/1_F4r9Ygk1g here a list of what was done, which was pretty much everything. Tires: New Dunlop D404, less than 10 miles Front: Forks, brake, wheels are stock Chopped original fender Custom length steel braided brake hose Custom length speedo cable Upper triple tree off of a FZ600 Headlight of a Puch, closed holes previously used for indicator lights Aftermarket Clipons, 2 inches shortened Aftermarket brake master cylinder, angled Aftermarket shorty levers Aftermarket controls Tank: Tank mounts relocated Suzuki GS550 tank (around 1980?), welded neck area, modified/welded area to attach to frame Inside cleaned out and coated (done by professional) Seat area/frame: Chopped frame, hoop welded on Modified Kawasaki tail fairing Custom made seat Rear: Stock swingarm New Aftermarket shocks Self made license plate holder Cat eye running/brake light After market LED turn signals Other: Minimal wiring, build from scratch New stator New fuse box New starter relay New regulator Lithium battery Rebuilt front brake Relocated horn Aftermarket ignition, relocated Black powder coat Tank and tail in Melon Yellow in-line fuel filter installed Original bike has 22k miles on it Currently still missing side covers that I will custom make soon Tank badges still missing -- haven't found any good custom ones yet Carb rebuild done and set to specs by professional Color tuned and synched Engine is stock, valve clearance done and shims replace, cam chain tensioner reset - all within specs now Engine painted with high temp paint Clutch untouched as it still works well and shift smoothly through all gears All bolts and nuts original, just cleaned and polished Lots of other parts replaced, like wheel bearings, steering bearings, gaskets, cables etc To do: Brake lever doesn't match clutch lever because I had to replace the MC. But it's just the lever, brakes work perfectly. Please note: there is currently no Neutral Gear indicator light installed. It is on my list of things to do, but no priority clean title in hand and under my name inspection done July 2016 comes with service manual that also lists current shims installed i just changed the oil and oil filter again to make sure bike is tip top i removed the petcock to check inner filter for possible dirt: it was all clean relisted because a local deal fell through would trade for a Buell XB |
