anyone have or know where I can get one?
have you found a set? I have a complete 750 that I could pull the rods from.
thanks. I'll soon post pics of my 85 maxim X
how can you say that when you don't even know what I charge? I've been known to do stuff for free.
this is what I can do if you want to pay for the shipping http://www.kijiji.ca/v-view-details.html?requestSource=b&adId=364380848

I'm still looking for Maxim X shims 1.60-1.70 I have a good selection of 25mm and 29mm if anyone wants to barter.
looking at the votes it appears that the Maxim X is very rare
Ripper has the US model 700cc you could eat off the underside of his ride
is everyone voting or did I do something wrong?

I live in Sackville Nova Scotia Canada. currently doing a frame up rebuild on a 86 and have a 85 parts bike.
do you currently own a Maxim X and where do you live?
where are they? Running or not? where do you live?

what I meant to say is that the pool is dry for 7mm maxim X shims. :( Dave's shim pool for 29mm shims will be much better than it currently is...
oops I meant to say 29mm... but I see Dave is able to hook you up.. I also have 25mm
the pool is dry and I will try http://www.xy4ever.com thanks for your help Toolman
are they 25mm shims? if there are none in the shim pool let me know. I'm in desperate need of 7mm maxim X shims.
I always like to cut that connector off. This is worth doing even if your charging system is working. (in my opinion, some may not agree) First,...
if they would fit it appears the range would not be low enough for a maxim. thanks for that info Toolman

all I'm trying to do is find out what diameter maxim X shims are. I never expected it to be this difficult thanks Toolman
thanks for the info on the shim pool. I did know about it. I would like to have my own selection of shims. guess I need to order one and measure...
I agree 100%. and thanks for the additional info. So when shopping on eBay, 7.0 mm shims is what I should be looking for not 7.5 or 9.0? thanks...
thanks for the reply Tony. when I checked with my local stealer they told me that the shims (adjusting pads) would be either 7.5 or 9.0 mm. not...
are maxim x shims 7.5 or 9 mm in diameter thanks Toolman
was a PDF file ever created for this procedure? Thanks
What I'm looking for are the ones that bolt to the head, but if you have the airbox and carb covers also that would be great.
I need the left and right sides. as long as they are not broken or cracked. scratches and chipped paint is fine.
will you be my friend?
