  • Fork seals for XJ1100J Maxim, Double Liped

    Hi I am a new member.
    I live in the United Kingdom 11 months a year but spend my vacation around Kansas in the summer.
    My brother works and lives here in Topeka and My XJ1100 maxim stays at his address when I am away.
    My bike is completely original with 3000miles on the clock and was given to my brother as a gift when trading a 100cc moped and after fitting a set of carbs to get it running he sold it to Me for $600 which I jumped at.
    I have since fitted a windshield so I can hang on past 60 mph,a cruse control and a new set of boots,but now I need some fork seals which are double liped not single and I want the correct ones for the job but Yamaha have discontinued them.

    Is there anyone online that knows where I can get a pair as I want to fit them before I leave to go home to the United Kingdom

    Many thanks allh
    The old ones are the best 9000 miles from new and rising
