What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you say the name Yamaha?
Probably the land of the setting sun and the ultimate motorbikes.
Yes, but behind that name is a much more complex story than you can imagine.
The Yamaha company, which today produces great motorcycles and many other products from various industries, once belonged to a company called Nippon Gakki Co.
And the founder of that company was Mr. Torakusu Yamaha.
His company Nippon Gakki Co. (today's Yamaha Corporation) was founded in 1887, and the company produced organs and pianos, quickly becoming the largest Japanese producer of musical instruments.
During World War II, Mr. Yamaha contracted to manufacture wooden and later metal propellers with the Japanese government.
After the war, the president of Nippon Gakki Co. in the early 1950s, decided to repurpose underutilized production facilities for the production of small motorcycles.
Considering that the production of motorcycles started quite well for him, he decided in 1955 to separate from the Yamaha company Nippon Gakki Co., and to found his own company for the production of motorcycles, called Yamaha Motor Co.
In addition to motorcycles, the company today produces boats, sailboats, fishing boats, personal watercraft, outboard motors, swimming pools, car engines, go-kart engines, snowmobiles, unmanned helicopters, electric generators, water pumps.
Yamaha Motor Co. is the world's second largest motorcycle manufacturer, and as far as watercraft are concerned, they are the first in the world.
The subject of our today's product analysis through the vehicle model is a type of Yamaha motorcycle called the YZF-R1.
It is a sports motorcycle with 998 cubic centimeters.
It was first presented to the world public in 1998, and here we are talking about the engine model that has been produced since 2015 until today.
This new series from 2015 contains a whole range of electronic systems, which consists of a sophisticated traction control system, skid control system, wheel lift control system, connected anti-lock brakes, launch control system, Quick Shift System and modes that can be choose according to the driver's wishes.
