The XS360 is Yamaha's first four-stroke engine bike in the small
segment and was among the earliest to be factory-fitted with alloy rims,
and rear disc-brake.
The design follows the line set by the XS500, however it is clearly
different at the tail.
It became a short-lived model since it soon was to be replaced with the
bigger bored and 4hp stronger XS400, witch earned some popularity in
Germanys 27hp insurance-class.
Though different in outer looks, is the engine remarkably identical with
the some older Honda CB360 Twin.
