1982 XJ550 Seca (Red)

The quarter fairing was a factory item but proved NOT to be very aerodynamic.....& was removed by most of it's owners.

I've had 3 of these bikes......& rode this 1 for 13 years before selling it with 130k on the clock .....

It looks like a 1982 XJ550 RH Seca.

A white one about 3/4 down this page

Red one on the far left in this line up of bikes, looks like the same on in the Nerds movie to me, which is entirely possible if the same studio produced both films.

Edit, Yamahead beat me to it, but the RH has the right faring also.

The XJ550 Seca was made in '81-'83

Basically, the only differences between all 3 was the color

'81 White

'82 Red

'83 Black........(Typical practices for alot of models in that time frame)

My 2nd bike was an all red with black wheels '82 or '83 550, not the white with red trim like yours, and I didn't have the funky looking RH fairing on mine lol
