Yamaha Corporation
Yamaha Corporation (ヤマハ株式会社 Yamaha Kabushiki Gaisha) (/jəˈmɑːhə/ or /ˈjɑːməhə/; Japanese pronunciation: [yamaha]) is a Japanese multinational corporation and conglomerate based in Japan with a very wide range of products and services, predominantly musical instruments, electronics, motorcycles and power sports equipment.
History
Yamaha was established in 1887 as a piano and reed organ manufacturer by Torakusu Yamaha as Nippon Gakki Company, Limited (日本楽器製造株式会社 Nippon Gakki Seizō Kabushiki Kaisha) (literally Japan Musical Instrument Manufacturing Corporation) in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka prefecture and was incorporated on October 12, 1897. The company's origins as a musical instrument manufacturer is still reflected today in the group's logo—a trio of interlocking tuning forks.
After World War II, company president Genichi Kawakami repurposed the remains of the company's war-time production machinery and the company's expertise in metallurgical technologies to the manufacture of motorcycles. The YA-1 (AKA Akatombo, the "Red Dragonfly"), of which 125 were built in the first year of production (1954), was named in honour of the founder. It was a 125cc, single cylinder, two-stroke, street bike patterned after the German DKW RT125 (which the British munitions firm, BSA, had also copied in the post-war era and manufactured as the Bantam and Harley-Davidson as the Hummer. In 1955, the success of the YA-1 resulted in the founding of Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd.

Baby, don't make me watch

And I didn't catch your name, lil' mama
But I decided
Every time I mention you
I'll say Yamaha, Yamaha, oh Yamaha
That's my little Yamaha, Yamaha, oh Yamaha
Oh baby, throw me the key
I'll be the perfect passenger
Don't throw him the key, no
'Cause all he'll do is gas you up
Let me freak you on the freeway
And every hour I'll beat into your heart, I'ma push to the max
Police hate us, why?
'Cause they never seen a girl with an ass so phat
Baby, don't make me watch
If I can't ride it
And I didn't catch your name, lil' mama
But I decided
Every time I mention you
I'll say Yamaha, Yamaha, oh Yamaha

Every time I mention you
I'll say Yamaha, Yamaha, oh Yamaha
There's nothing quite like you, my baby
