1982 Yamaha Xj650 Maxim Fires up!

I just picked up this 1982 Yamaha XJ650J or Maxim. Not sure if it starts but going to try to get it started and do something with it. Not sure yet. Leave a comment of what you think I should do with it. Also looking for a motorcycle name.

That thing sounds like it just rolled off the production line. Sweet buy. Thanks for the shout out. Def can't wait to see what you have in store for it

I was really surprised that it sounded like that. It took a little bit to get it started because of some wiring. I’m excited for sure!!!

Exciting!! She’s a runner! Can’t wait to see how it turns out. Name ideas: Black Beauty, The Awakening, Bone Dry,…. Might be too early for a name

[@americanroningarage4781]

@@JennaTurner-75 those are good ideas.

I like "Bone Dry"...since Jay had to put juice in it to relight the life of the bike

[@johnandrews8079]

That's awesome Jay...I've seen these look pretty cool bobbed, but turning it back to original would be cool too.

@@johnandrews8079 John I am in the fence for sure. I do like the bobbed look on these too. I don’t think it would a lot to restore it.
