The Yamaha Motor Co was formed in 1955 as the powered vehicle division of the massive Yamaha Corporation more famous for making musical instruments. The first bike produced in 1954 was the YA-1, like the BSA Bantam a copy of the German-made DKW RT125 but in typical Japanese fashion this was soon improved upon with the launch of the YA-2 in 1957. This proved to be an immediate success in sporting events starting a long tradition of achievement that goes on to this day in Moto GP. In spite of Yamaha's reputation for performance machines, the humble little 'Fizzy' is still one of their best thought of and most sought-after products.

Finished in Popsicle Purple which is understood to be its original colour, this iconic motorcycle is offered with owners', service plus Haynes manuals and a collection of old MOT certificates. Having come from a deceased estate, the vendor was the first owner and then bought it back, entering a second occasion of ownership in 2006. Understood to have been extensively restored in the early 2000s the Yamaha has more recently been fitted with new tyres plus subject to brake fettling in 2019.
