    Hey all!
    I have been lurking for a month since I got my xj, and this is an awesome forum -- y'all rock.

    Three questions for ya --

    1) I have emailed two of the names on the lpage for ordering the CD (us and canada), and have got no response -- is it still available?

    2) I don't know how to remove my seat -- all the instructions in the forum (and in my haynes manual) just say to remove it. No retainer screws, no catch? Just pull hard?

    3) the bike stalled the last 2 times I pulled up to my garage. Never at a stop sign, only in front of the door. Clutch all the way in, trying to get it into neutral (I am a serious newbie). Yesterday it took a few minutes to start it up -- maybe flooding? Both times the bike was fully warmed up, today I am sure the choke was all the way in. What should I look for?

    Cheers!

    on my maxim you turn the keylock on the side then you pull a latch that goes through it back
    on my seca turn the keylock and there is a latch further back on the same side

    key lock and latches -- roger that. I never would have figured that out. Wonder why it isn't in the manual?

    Y'all are awesome!

    thanks for the answer about the CD -- I will mail a check and cross my fingers.

    As for the stalling -- a kickstand engine kill? haha I am such a noob. I had no idea.
