Coverage here is unusual: Yamaha's publication LIT-11616-XJ-70 takes in both 1981 and 1983, and documents the Seca alongside the XJ750. The 1983 machine is coded XJ750RK.
Where the years or the two model names diverge, the procedures say so, so read the headings before you follow a figure. The common material is the factory standard: tightening torques and service limits, engine and gearbox overhaul in sequence, carburettor settings and synchronisation, chassis and brake work, and the full wiring diagrams.

Capacities, lubricant grades and adjustment ranges are listed with the specifications. Nothing in the book is descriptive; it is measurement, sequence and diagram, in the form a dealer technician received it.
