Yamaha XJ650 & 750 Fours Owners Workshop Manual
- The ancestry of the Yamaha XJ range can be traced back to 1976 when the three cylinder X8750 D was introduced. This was Yamaha’s first large capacity four-stroke and it was noteworthy as being the first widely accepted shaft-drive motorcycle to come from that manufacturer. Prior to its introduction. shaft drive conferred an image of strength, re- liability and medium performance. Fine on a BMW or Gold Wing. but something of a shock on a DOHC triple.
- The popularity of the X5750 models and the later 850cc versions had an obvious’effect when Yahama decided to join in the race amongst the ‘big four’ to produce the biggest road- going motorcycle in the late 19703. To Yamaha’s credit. they were not drawn into the six-cylinder behemoth battle that two of the other factories had indulged in, but brought out a comparatively usable four-cylinder 1100 cc sports tourer, the X51 100 E. This. and its subsequent derivatives, were quite well received, and bore many similarities to the 750 triples, including the now proven shaft drive. By the end of the 19703 sanity once again prevailed in the industry and the spiralling cost of fuel encouraged the manufac- turers to look for a new wave of mid-capacity machines.
- These – were to be smaller, lighter and more economical, but were to have a level of performance close to that of the 1000 cc machines. Yamaha‘s answer was to be the XJ series. which retained and developed the shaft drive arrangement to a point where it was almost competitive with chain systems in terms of ‘ rideability, with few of the legendary shaft drive vices being obtrusive. The XJ series has also heralded a period of serious refinement which can be seen in almost every area of the various models.
- The engine is astonishingly narrow for a four. this being achieved by relocating the alternator from the usual crankshaft end mounting to the end of a secondary shaft above and behind the crankshaft. Recent developments in suspension and braking technology are also evident on various models. The XJ models also mark one of the first serious attempts at applying computer technology on a motorcycle. Although the microprocessor- based monitor system is really little more than impressive gadgetry, it does indicate the way in which enhanced precision at relatively low cost may shape the development of the motorcycle during the next few years.
