This Yamaha XJ650 Midnight Maxim purchased from a chap in Stoke on Trent for £200 is begging to be restored, so I guess I'll have to oblige! when I've got some time. The Midnight Maxim motorbikes a 1983 model and I will be adding photos of the Yamaha motorbike as she is being restored! Currently my Maxim is resting in the kitchen awaiting inspiration as to why the starter motor dosn't start her!
After buying a brand new battery and checking over the electrics my Maxim is still not on the road! A starter motor is probably needed but buying a starter motor seems an impossible task!
This lovely old Yamaha XT500 once resided in England, it was taken across to Crete where it was promptly possessed by the local Customs the Zoll office who re-plated it with Greek number plates and sold it to an English Yamaha XT500 fanatic!
