    Since you asked him first, lets see if he finds anything for you.... If he does not, then send a conversation to me.

    jbernc, you are a lucky fellow for being near a place like that and I thank you for sharing! If you happen to spot a decent seat(2 pieces) to an 85-86 Maxim 700(N or X) please get back to me. The duct tape on my project bike doesn't look too pretty :(

    That is very cool.

    k-moe just suggested that I find a 750 Maxim fuel tank for my 650 'cause it's about a gallon bigger - and I live out where an extra 40mi/fill is pretty important...

    Could you check on that?

    Next time you're around there could you check for a carburetor diaphragm/slide that isn't torn? I've been having a hell of a time trying to find one for a reasonable price (or even just finding that part in stock)

    You are a special kind of person to offer such great help! I am in search of exhaust for a Maxim X 700. Mine is a 1986 X but I assume the '85 fits as well. I also believe the exhaust from the 750 Maxim X is a fit, but very rare in USA. The entire exhaust or just the mufflers, whatever you might find!

    Hey Hogfiddles, with all those bikes surely you have some mufflers for my MAXIM-X, hoping.

    Hey ya. Yeah I typically wouldn't want to step on any toes but, this is like the best scrap yard in pheonix for imports. It's also struggling at the moment. I definately wont take away from the headhunting aspect you have here because as far as internet stuffs they don't do alot which is a shame. It's bobs used motorcycle parts Please Please Please give them all the business you can. I've dealt with these guys for about 10 years for all my CB projects and they're really good people. They're talking about liquidating assets and shutting down if business doesn't pick up... hate to see this gold mine go away.

    Me too. I'd love to give them money! I'm looking for mufflers and possibly the crossover for 82 Maxim 750J. Also the battery sensor for the same bike. I'll pay you a few dollars for your time and trouble too. Thanks!

    jbernc, Like has been stated before, it is great you are both assisting other bike owners that need parts and also promoting the salvage yard. The internet opens doors to buying and trading that helps anybody that rides older anything, bikes, cars, boats, etc. Okay, my request, looking for a complete 4 into 1 exhaust that will fit a 1982 750 Maxim. A black 4 pipe and chrome muffler would be great but all chrome if its not damaged and rusted out. IF you ask the yard or locate it yourself, please send me a message roadrider57atyahoo.com Thanks

    Jacob,

    Thank you for your offer, it may help many folks on this site. Any chance you could see if there is an exhaust collector for an 85 maxim? I went to wrap my pipes today and when trying to get one of them out the brittle collector just cracked. Anyway, thanks if you can!
