The early history of Yamaha Racing



Welcome to Yamahistory.com
​
Now online for 10 years !
​
This website is the home and resource covering the
earliest history of Yamaha's thoroughbred racing motorcycles.
Later early development is also included, showing how some of the forgotten Yamaha race bikes evolved into the works and production models we are all familiar with.
The ancestry of the TZ and M1 began here,
with the 1957 Yamaha YD-A & YD-B
