Initially overlooked as just another foreign brand, it didn't take long for riders to notice how the XS650 stood out, particularly when it came to service and maintenance needs. The reputation of the XS650 was built in part due to its unique engineering and its odd history. Originally, the XS650's engine was a smaller 500cc engine designed by German manufacturer, Horex, that built engines and parts after World War II. After a few changes in ownership, the engine design was acquired by the Japanese company Showa, which Yamaha then took over in 1960. This blend of German engineering and Japanese refinement over the years gave the XS650 its reputation for being both reliable and powerful. One of the unique innovations of the engine was its crankcase. Engines at the time all used a vertically split crankcase, which tended to cause inevitable oil leakage and required maintenance to ensure proper use. The XS650 had a horizontally split crankcase, which meant less leakage and easier maintenance. Side by side with its contemporaries, the Yamaha XS650 would be the last bike still running when the others needed a break for maintenance or an oil change. It's this enduring quality that has given the XS650 a special place in the hearts of motorcycle enthusiasts.
