    Well that is sad. I am on the other side of the continent so I can't be of any help. Drat!

    If they were cheap enough a pair of Midnight Maxim 750 mufflers. Cheap, as in $50 or less 'cause shipping is going to really be painful.....
    Many Thanks,
    John

    Yes, it's a shame that they will be gone. Good bunch of guys. I have spent many hours rummaging through their shelves. I can't think of anything I need right now, but I'm sure I'll miss them when they're gone.

    Quick visit with Jim yesterday and came home with a couple of boxes of carbs and gauges. And a Seca 650 headlight bucket.

    This Seca headlight bucket! Or these carbs for a midnight maxim! Will probably use them on my midnight because they are nasty

    That single hat pic looks a lot like the ones I have. Thanks. I'll keep my eyes out for some others. My carbs will clean up ok (I think), just rusty tops.

    Do you happen to have a set of carbs that'd fit a 1980 XJ650 Maxim? I just picked one up the bike the other day, unfortunately it didn't come with carbs.

    Yes for the 1980 I do. Question is do you want a done and ready to ride set or ones to rebuild yourself? Hogfiddles has lots like I do and would be quicker to get them. Go ahead and get them from Dave if you need them quick.

    How much would you want for a set? I don't mind rebuilding them myself. I just picked up an '80 XJ650 but it didn't have carbs. Not sure what I'm going to do with it yet...
