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!

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)?
