Does the bike also idle around 3k after it warms up? This happened to me once after pulling and replacing the exhausts. Was driving me nuts. It...
Do you often over react this much Mark?
I had this happen last spring. Idled fine, then after 15 or 20 minutes up to 3g's. It ended up I had removed the exhaust and when putting back on...
Thanks for your responses. There has been no frost, bike has been sitting in the garage and I haven't washed it recently. Good idea to pull the...
I totally destroyed my front fender when rebuilding my front brakes. I'd covered it with plastic but the whole ordeal with the location of the...
Hi all... took my XJ750 Seca out yesterday, had ridden it a few days earlier so hadn't been sitting long. Temp was around 68. As soon as it...
I've used the Duplicolor Vinyl spray several times on bike seats, back rests and have had really good luck with it. It lays down really nice and...
This is strange. I got my 750 Seca last fall and went through the whole bike... biggest problem was both front calipers were froze. I rebuilt...
Checked the bulbs... both are 1157s, both work properly. Where is that switch and it's adjuster?
Level is right up there... so hard to check, the only thing I don't like about this bike. At first I only noticed it when using the back brake,...
Last year I changed the hydraulic fluid on my 82 XJ750 Seca. Ever since then I've been getting a tail light warning when I brake moderately......
Thank you sir.
After pulling the drive unit off again to put the spring in, after checking with an exploded diagram of the drive unit, it shows a gasket that...
Thanks Kmoe. Still slapping myself in the head for taking that drive unit off with the tire. How important is it to get the torque right on...
Hey All, When removing my rear tire, I needlessly removed the drive gear and drive shaft. Now putting it all back and the damn Haynes doesn't...
Thanks for the response Kmoe and XJ. I just checked all that. Fluid is up, reconnected rear switch. Same thing happens. If I push on the rear...
Hi all. This problem started right after I rebuilt the front calipers. Before rebuilding the taillights worked and are fit with proper bulbs....
Thanks everyone for your input
Thanks Light. This is becoming one of my favorite bikes of all time. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the color, now, nothing left but good.
Oops ... here's the leftovers:[ATTACH]
OK... I recently finished painting my XJ750... removed the front fender, tank, tail and side covers. Got these parts left over. I seem to...
Damn it Jim!
A couple things... did you pull the carbs because of this starting problem or did you just start having it after you put them back on? Does the...
No, when I replaced the stator and rotor in my CB650 a couple months ago this connector was left on the floor and somehow got pushed behind the...
Just confirmed... it's from the Honda. Thanks for your responses.
Thanks for the offer Greggy but... brain cells have just been stimulated by your post... this is the connector that goes to the stator in my CB650...
I just finished wrapping up my XJ750 Seca after changing the steering head bearings. I think I remember taking this piece of harness out of the...
I ran into this problem when I was rebuilding my CB900C a few years back. The shop manual tells you to get the dots perfectly lined up... I'd...
LOL.... I made the same comment to a friend this morning and he gave me a short lecture on inconsistencies of Suzuki wiring. I had a lot of love...
OK... got it. Combination of design flaw and not being attentive enough when reattaching the plugs. Inside the housing there are two cannon...
Yes, turn signals work fine, only problem is panel indicator lights stay on (also flash with turn signals but go back to on when signal is off)
(After reconnecting wiring in headlamp) Does anyone have any idea why the turn signal indicator bulbs on the instrument cluster stay on all the...
When I hit the starter the bike turns over and starts. I haven't checked the voltage on start up yet.... what should the max drop be? I've spent...
Dam... lousy tenth of a volt shuts this thing down. Now I'm concerned about this battery. It's only a few weeks old... had a full charge 3 weeks...
Thanks for that. Dammit... I ran the harness around the left side of the frame. Maybe I've got a bad cannon plug connection.. rerouting might...
OK... well I figured that one out. Let's try another one... I'd like to test everything before I zip it all up... got all the wires hooked up...
It's an 82 750 Seca
I actually considered taking pictures before I pulled all the wires out of my headlight but for some unexplainable reason I thought I'd remember...
Absolutely brilliant.
I have to say, this is one of the most difficult bikes I've ever worked on. From the buried M/C, to the handlebars that cover the fork end caps,...
New fork oil it is... been planning to do that anyway. Judging from other subtle bits of evidence of neglect I've found throughout this bike,...
Thanks for the response. My bike has been upgraded already. So my original question still stands.
I've had some progressively worsening wobble in my 750 Seca.. checked the forks for play, didn't find any but once I got the bike supported with...
Got the rest of my parts today and rebuilt the calipers. OH... MY.... GOD... what a PIA bleeding these brakes. I've changed fluid on double...
Thanks guys. All that's left to do right now is sit back and wait for the parts to roll in. Coming up on day 4 and K&L still hasn't blessed me...
After looking closer I noticed that I had been looking at the diagram for the XJ60... totally different The diagram a couple pages below for the...
Hi, new member, name is Robb. I just bought a new/used XJ750 Seca... it's in really nice condition, relatively low mi (14K) but has a...
