Hey guys, I'm the proud new owner of an 82 Yamaha xj750 maxim, I was wondering if you guys could show me a picture or detail where I would find the drain screw for the carbs? I could find it myself of course by unscrewing everything until I saw gas come out but that sounds dangerous, figured I'd ask first.

The carburetor bleed screw is usually located at the bottom of each carburetor bowl. It's a small screw that you can open to let the fuel escape.
