' 1887 Yamaha s history goes back over a hundred years to when
, Torakusu Yamaha founded the company which began producing
. ( reed organs The Yamaha (orporation in +apan then %ippon /akki
., .) ' (o 'td has grown to become the world s largest manufacturer of
, a full line of musical instruments and a leading producer of
/ , audio visual products semiconductors and other computer related
, , , products sporting goods home appliances and furniture specialty
, , . metals machine tools and industrial robots
, ., 1, 1955, The Yamaha "otor (orporation 'td begun on +uly is a
, major part of the entire Yamaha group but is a separately
. managed business entity from the Yamaha (orporation The
Yamaha "otor (orporation is the second largest manufacturer of
. motorcycles in the world Yamaha "otor (orporation owns its
- . . wholly owned subsidiary in the ,) called Yamaha "otor
, , , (orporation ,)A that is handling not only motorcycles but also
, , , , snow mobiles golf carts outboard engines and water vehicles
. under the brand name of Yamaha as well
1954 , 125 In production of the first motorcycles began a simple cc
- - . single cylinder two stroke It was a copy of the /erman &-W
, design which the British B)A (ompany had also copied in the
- . post war era and manufactured as the Bantam
, , The first Yamaha the YAI known to +apanese enthusiasts as
, " ", - Akatombo the $ed &ragonfly established a reputation as a well
. built and reliable machine $acing successes helped boost its
, 175 popularity and a second machine the cc Y(I was soon in
. production
- - The first Yamaha designed motorcycle was the twin cylinder Y&I
1957. , 20 , produced in The racing version producing bhp won the
. 15,811 "ount Asama race that year !roduction was still modest at
, . motorcycles far less than onda or )u*uki
1959 The company grew rapidly over the next three years and in
introduced the first sports model to be offered by a +apanese
, - - . factory the twin cylinder Y&)I with five speed gearbox #wners
who wanted to compete in road racing or motocross could buy kits
. to convert the machine for both road and motocross racing
1960 600% 138,000 . By production had increased to motorcycles In
, +apan a period of recession followed during which Yamaha and the
, other major +apanese manufacturers increased their exports so that
. they would not be so dependent on the home market
, To help boost export sales Yamaha sent a team to the
1961, 1963 .uropean /rand !rix in but it was not until the season
. that results were achieved
After the -orean War the American economy was booming and
. 1962 12,000 +apanese exports were increasing In Yamaha exported
. 36,000 1964 motorcycles The next year it was and in production
87,000. rose to
1963 250 In Yamaha had produced a small batch of (( road
, - , - . racing motorcycles for sale the air cooled twin cylinder T&I .ver
since then Yamaha has built and sold motorcycles that could be
" ", raced successfully straight out of the crate and as a
conse0uence Yamaha machines have won more road races than
, . any other make exposing Yamaha to a good deal of publicity
1965 244,000 , 50/50 By production was units split about between
. home and export sales #ne of the biggest drawbacks to the sales
- . of two strokes was that the rider had to mix oil with their gas
Yamaha technicians accomplished a major technical feat by the
. development and introduction of a new Autolube system
Basically an oil tank that fed lubricant to a pump that metered
, . oil to the big ends main bearings and cylinder barrels It proved
. very reliable and did away with mixing oil and gas at every fill up
1966 The first overseas factory was opened in )iam in to supply
. 1967 )outheast Asia In Yamaha production surpassed that of )u*uki
4,000 406,000 . by at units Yamaha established a lead with the
" 250 - introduction of the first true trail bike the cc single cylinder
". - , - , &TI The company also developed a two liter six cylinder double
- . overhead camshaft sports car unit for Toyota "otor This proved
- - helpful when Yamaha produced their own high performance four
. 1969 stroke motorcycles In Yamaha built a full si*e road racing
. circuit near their main factory at Iwata
1970 20 By the number of models had expanded to ranging from
50 350 , 574,000 , 60% cc to cc with production up to machines of which
. - were for export That year Yamaha broke their two stroke tradition
- , 650 by launching their first four stroke motorcycle the cc 2)I
. vertical twin modeled on the famous Triumph twins
1973 (1,000,000) In production topped one million motorcycles per
, 642,000 year for the first time leaving )u*uki way behind at and
' 1,836,000. 1970' catching up on onda s &uring the s Yamaha
- technicians concentrated on development of four stroke models
- that were designed to pass the ever increasing exhaust emission
- laws and to be more economical than the two strokes that had
' . made Yamaha s fortune
#ver the years Yamaha produced some less successful
: motorcycles
750 1972. The T2 twin of
500 - , - , The T2 double overhead camshaft four valve per cylinder
1973. twin of
750 - , - , The 2) shaft drive double overhead camshaft three
