    I have a spare set of XJ650 carburetors. I cleaned this set thoroughly (carb dip, carb cleaner, and ultrasonic), added stainless steel allen head drain screws, replaced all the rubber except for the diaphrams, which were in good shape. Replace a damaged carb body that had a broken float pillar with a new one from Chacal.

    Has pitted chrome carb hats; for a price, I'd be happy to blast these for you and get them cleaned up and polish the carb bodies exterior. I also have a pair of painted flat black carb hats I could swap them out with.

    I have other parts for sale as well, which I will list when I get back--includes a complete caliper/master cylinder that were functional when taken off the bike and that is all still connected (including the old brake hoses, which fitz will rightly recommend you replace). As with any used calipers, a rebuild is recommended. I am willing to do the rebuild before for a price, if you'd prefer. I can also paint the caliper, though the factory paint is still in OK shape.

    There's also a... I want to say right side cover for the '82 XJ650 Maxim, the maroon color.

    Some tank decals that are only in OK shape, were painted black by a PO.

    A regulator/rectifier. Two spare TCI units. A set of blinkers that are smaller/shorter than stock blinkers.

    If there's anything in particular you are looking for, ask, I'll see if I remember having it or not. This is all off the top of my head.

    I also have a rear rack/back seat that I custom mounted to my XJ 650 Maxim without any permanent modification, and as mounted can hold 200 lbs or more. It does require removing the rear grab bar with helmet lock--at first this bothered me, but I no longer miss it, and the rack can't be beat. Also very comfortable for passengers, and looks good. Came off of an old Yamaha cruiser from the late 80's, don't recall which.

    K&N air filter, lightly used.

    I have a very good condition seat that was reupholstered with leather and a very nice job done. Comfortable and attractive.

    Trying to raise money to buy my next bike, so while I'll discount this from an ebay price, I am still trying to make something. Buy things together and I'll give a discount.

    If you're wondering about my Mexico trip and how that's connected, just follow the signature... I'm about to go write something up there.
