    Those look like 650rj mufflers to me....
  2. k-moe

    I just love the cargo space on this thing. Seeing this and Dave's 900rk... hard to say, but I think I might test positive for Seca in the bloodstream...

    Nice bike!
    Is that color original XJ750 Seca? If it is, I have one with the same color. And if it is, do you know what the paint code would be?
    1. k-moe
      It is not the original color, and unfortunately I do not know the paint code.

    I just added a pair of LED spot lamps for daytime visibility/ extra viewing distance on country roads. Set up so they run independent of the headlights, they can be on as camp/work lights if needed.

    I had a red 750 Seca with the stock fairing. Sold it. A guy selling 2 Seca 750s for the price of half of one. Too many projects going at the time and passed. I love your "super deluxe PVC tool tubes"

    My first post to you was heavily edited. Over written by 400 characters. Who's counting? Jack
