studly256 Posted May 20, 2007 Posted May 20, 2007 (1) I just got a 1980 Yamaha 650 Maxima I I Noticed that the Battery Compartment Area Is very small.Looks about 4''X 8'' Almost looks like a Scooter Battery Size.Can't seem to figure it out. This bike has no Kick starter,So I would think that it would take a bigger battery. Does anyone Know what size battey(Type,Model,No#) Why in the world would someone make a bike with no Kicker. (2)I Also,have one Vacume Line coming from the Carb Boot.All the others are Plugged Off. On my 1100 the Vac- line goes to the Air Filter Box. But, on this 650 it don't have a Nipple on the Filter Box for a Vacume Line hookup . Does anyone know where it goes? Or am I Missing something? Thanks!

Thanks! my 81 has an everstart ES12A-A battery in it, made in japan. I'm not sure exactly what you are looking for on the other thing, but if you clue me in a bit I will look at my bike and see if I can figure it out.

Hello, About my 1980 Yamaha Maxima I I found the rite Battery.... Thanks! Now I still haven't found out where the Vacume Line Goes. I'll try to explain what I'm talking about. ( On the 1980 Yamaha 650 Maxima I) I have four Rubber Boots that are mounted with 2 bolts for each Boot too the Engine . Each of These Boots have a Nipple on the top for Vacume hookup. On 3 of the boots the Nipples are Capped Off with a Rubber Cap. (Now on 1 of the Rubber Boot the nipple is not Capped Off, It has a Vacume line to it.) From that 1 rubber Boot where does that Vacume line go? I also,have a 1100 XS on that bike the Vacume line goes from the Carb Boot to the Air Filter. But,this 650 I have ,Don't have a Vacume line hookup (Nipple)to the Air filter. Can Anyone tell me where that Vacume line Goes? Another problem I have is Float Settings for 1980 Yamaha 650 Maxima I Can Anyone tell me the Float Settings (measurments)? .
