      Yep! 82 only year American XJ1100J Maxim.
      83-84 XJ Maxim's available elsewhere.

      Brant... How can you tell it's an '80?
      Looks like a 78-79 to me, too...?

          By all appearances, it is a G, Bob ...

          It has the Diamond Silver paint that was only offered in 1980, the factory G saddle, and the kicker shaft is missing from the engine.

          (This particular G is missing mirrors and the unique-to-the-G grab rail.)

              Looks pretty decent for $1000. I always loved that color too.

                Cool! I learned something new! Paint color...
                Cody's F (Time Machine) doesn't have a kicker either, though?
                I noticed the seat, but wasn't sure if it was a stock cover or had been replaced.

                Thanks, Marco!

                  Agreed, John. If it runs as good as it looks, and he could find the title...

                    The add says OBO so everything is negotiable.
                    Throw an offer out there and see if it sticks.
