Hi all,
This is my first post. I rode for 25 years but have been away from it for 15 years.
I got an 84 Maxim 400 and have a couple of questions. Please pardon my ignorance at this point. When checking the oil in the window should the oil completely cover the window? I think there is some writing next to the window but I'm not able to read it even after cleaning.
Is it normal for the headlight to come on with the key even though the headlight switch is in the "off" position?
Although the bike had been parked for quite a while I did get it started with a new battery and some messing around with the carbs. Most immediate problem right now is that the front brake is dragging. I think taking that apart will be the next job.
thanks,
Sandy
