Organs are unfortunately a weak point with Yamaha workstations. The leslie sim attempts are particularly unsatisfying. Jon's signature sound did not use a leslie, so you may be in luck there.

IMHO, the organ sounds on any rompler are painful.

I never liked the organs on the Motif (original model) I used to have. Various Leslie sims I tried didn't help them much, either. It may be worth a try to get the Bee's Knee's card, if you can find it- never heard it though.

Korgs can pull off some great organ sounds.

just find a preset that says something about 888000000 or 888800000, then add some overdrive and maybe a guitar amp sim.
