Sorry, I ended up selling both my main bike and parts bike last summer. I'm running a 2011 Honda CBR125R now. TrueG

Indeed, I have since come across that info. Oh well, we live and we learn.

I stupidly figured I could get by without a battery maintainer over the winter and that instead I would simply start up my bike every two weeks to get the fuel flowing and charge up the battery. Ya ya, boy was I wrong. See, where I live, it doesn't generally snow (maybe 1 or 2 days a...

You can count me in. I've already purchased some mirrors and an air filter from Parts N More. I would have no problem finding more goodies.

I would assume so. The bike was mostly complete when I got it and I haven't used anything from the clutch system although I'm not sure what the piece you are asking for looks like. I have a fuel tank lid but no key. The previous owner removed the ignition and wired up a manual switch to...

Lukejd8 came over and took the engine and chain. He also ended up taking the oil fill plug (sorry DCopp). Motivate2008, I have the exhaust pipes, but they are extremely rusted up. I don't think they are salvageable.

I don't know if it works (although I suppose I could test it on my bike easy enough), but yes I have that still. I will have to verify the part number when I get home.

This past weekend I decided to try my spare set of carbs again. I took a closer look at the main jets and I could see that the smaller jet was on the right instead of the left, so it appears that I did indeed swap them by accident. :doh: I also went over them thoroughly again (made sure they...

Can you describe what that looks like (or have a picture)?

Oh, sorry, it didn't occur to me that he might be looking for a Seca part.

Actually, between the two bikes, the only side cover I have is the right hand cover. If I had two, I would sell you one, but I would like to keep the one I have. Consequently, I'm looking for the left hand cover if anyone has one. No, DCopp, it's not in that picture. The trim is different...

sageone: I will think about it. If I sell them, the wheels will probably be the last to go since once I take them off I won't be able to move the bike. WReXie: gotcha, yes I have those. I guess I don't really know what any of this stuff is worth. Just make me an offer either here or...

- Mirrors/perches? - My first Maxim 400 didn't come with any mirrors. My parts bike did, but they are aftermarket. The right one works great, but the left one is loose and I wasn't able to tighten it up so it droops and isn't really usable. - I ended up buying OEM replacement...

I think I have about pulled everything off of my 83 Maxim 400 parts bike that I think I will need. That means everything else is up for sale. The bike was complete but didn't have papers. Anyway, if there are any parts that you need, post or PM me and I will see if I have it and let you...

Ya, I'm starting to think I'm the problem. :laugh: I guess it is just a little touchy. If I am very careful with the throttle the jerking is minimized. Otherwise, everything else is working pretty well. Once my new mirrors come in and I get some of that rust off I think it will be a...
