Bike won't start? Think the battery might be dead? Or could it be something else? These electrical FAQs are dedicated to Yamaha XJ750/650/550 Maxim and Seca motorcycles (with some emphasis on the Seca 750). Don't buy that new battery or alternator until you've read these FAQ's! Take a look around. Feel free to download the FAQ (I've made a text version available.)

I am an electrical engineer and shade-tree motorcycle
mechanic. I have owned a Seca 750 since 1987, and am still
finding new things to fix. My intent is to help out fellow XJ owners
with what I have learned about this bike over the years, and hopefully
instill an appreciation of the importance of maintaining the electrical
system properly.
