Had to take a second look at the XJ. Swirly wheels and teardrop tank but the headlight and turn signals are wrong.

Its an '82 XJ750 Maxim ..I had one ... so its correct for what it is...as it was '82s' were XJs' everything from the Maxim XJ400 to XJ1100

Hi Harry,
dunno if the XJ's headlight & signals are stock or not but even if they are not they are not wrong, they are only different.
But the rider? No gloves, rain jacket air-filled like a balloon, wearing a backpack,
white low-cut sneakers and black socks? Man that is so wrong.

no sunglasses and a very useful hoody
pinching the tank
riding one of the nation's deadliest twisties

I guess wrong was not the correct term. Didn't realize that the 750 had the square light and signals. That would explain it.

I also had one. They even had a rectangle driving light under the headlight. It had its own switch. It was one of my favorite bikes. Little under powered if you installed a big fairing. Still loved the bike though.

It was called the auxilliary headlight...it was as smooth as the 11s' ...It did feel underpowered with a windscreen and overall its power was ok..but not world beating like the 11s'
