    1982 XS400(K?,J?) Maxim DOHC

    I've been browsing through here but I can't find any other threads..., But what I'm needing is a lead on a good quality clutch kit for my Maxim 400 DOHC. With 26000 miles the clutch is toast and I need the steels and frictions, I have springs. Does anyone recommend a specific brand?

    The pick up coil is on the left side of the engine on this 400 Maxim? I had spark yesterday, now today I don't.

    No spark. My ignitor is good, tested it on my second bike. I have lights and all the wires traced but not hooked up yet. The starter works, the HI and LO works etc just I have zero spark and I'm losing faith in this $300 parts bike, I thought I could get running. :( The poor kiddo was left...
