If you're talking about the sump strainer - there's good argument to splash-the-cash and fit the aftermarket version from MikesXS / Heiden tuning as the originals are reported to tear the mesh away from part of the plate (leaving a nice big hole!)

If you're talking the screen filter that sits in the RHS casing, and want to spend more pennies, MikesXS / Heiden sell a paper filter (Honda motorcycle part) and an adaptor so it'll fit the XS.

This means a detergent oil actually has somewhere to collect the nastiness as opposed to letting circulate till the next oil change.

For that don't know, the XS650 (which came out around 1968) runs two separate gauzes - great for catching solid lumps, but that's about it
