1983 Yamaha XJ650 Maxim

Summary:

This is a great bike!

Faults:

I have replaced the fuse box unit, the front shocks, and I have replaced both the front and rear tires.

General Comments:

This was my first and only motorcycle. I have owned it since 1984 and have not ridden it a lot. It has plenty of power and seems to start every year without hesitation. I like it for its low center of gravity and its ease of handling, not to mention the gas mileage.

Would you buy another motorcycle from this manufacturer? Yes

You must have the crankcase too full!
