    '80~'83 should be the same except maybe for the "details" in the cover.

    Good find; read this: http://xjbikes.com/Forums/viewtopic/t=15874.html

    And welcome aboard. You have some work to do but it looks like you've got a solid starting point.

    Get your basic location into your profile and some bike info into your signature, makes it easier for us.

    Thanks for the info. Hope I added the signature correctly. Got a line on an 81' seat. Are the headlight bracket and bucket interchangeable as well? Yes, I have some work to do for sure. The tank and side covers are off for prep work, tomorrow got to check out the valves. Some very bad noise is coming from the top end and number 2 cylinder is not working...wish me luck!
