Yea and its also the most random pie, I had a honda push bike when I was a wee one - never could figure that out - oh well it was a piece of shit to - guess they carry their quality standards everywhere... Oh yes I love it.

I had a BSA - Martini-action heavy-barrelled .22 target rifle with diopter sights. Never rode it on the open road, though.

And Yamaha doesn't just make motorcycles. They make damned fine hi-fi kit, and a better-than-average piano. Hence the logo.

Triple tuning forks.

I have about three Yamaha recorders - the "standard" recorder in most schools. Not concert quality, but certainly good quality.

Crossed tuning forks,the original bikes only had the logo and no name on them

Kawasaki Heavy Industries make just about everything from aircraft to supertankers. Motorcycles are a tiny part of their organisation
