Posted May 12, 201114 yr Folks I am rebuilding a 1983 XS400J Maxim. If anyone as a repair manual, parts list, owners manual, or parts available. please contact me. Thanks
May 13, 201114 yr Author I have clicked on links and searched the net til my fingers have near bled.. Are there no online manual links that actually work? The XS400J Maxim must be the rare creature that no one has or everyone wants to forget... It is even rare to find a complete picture of, or a picture of a complete one....
May 13, 201114 yr Moderator the general lack of response comes down to netiquette. introduce yourself first in the new members section, let peeps get to know you.

Don't know what the problem is...I just type XS400J, and get all sorts of hits. Try leaving off the Maxim, or type 400 Maxim, and leave off the XS400J. I picked up a new manual (circa 1983) on Ebay. I rebuilt a crashed '83 XS400J searching parts on Ebay. The single hardest part to find, was the right-side outer battery cover.There are lots of Maxims out there. Try this link for parts referencing. (it's the first link to appear via Google using xs400j parts) http://www.boats.net/parts/search/Yamaha/Motorcycle/1982/XS400J/parts.html
