Hello Yamaha Motorcycle Enthusiasts
and collectors. Here’s an extremely rare
and highly sought after 1957 Yamaha 125cc Y-A1. The Yamaha YA1 is the first motorcycle
model ever built by Yamaha Motorcycle Company.
Production years were 1955 - 1958 for the Japanese market only. Known as the Red Dragonfly, this bike was the
9th Yamaha motorcycle built during the 1957 production year. Yamaha VIN #A57-9009.
For Yamaha fans, this might be the
crown jewel of any serious enthusiast’s collection. The Y-A1 is Yamaha’s first motorbike. Famous
not just for being a successful racing machine right off the bat, but also
introducing the clutch-in, kick-start system used on virtually every bike
afterwards until the age of electronic ignition. This bike still has its original tires,
original seat, original grips and original foot pegs which are all very rare
for a Yamaha YA1’s. We’re told by the owner that this
motorcycle was on display in the famous Japanese Iwashita Collection Main Museum
since the early 1960’s. Mr Iwashita’s
museum sat at the base of Mount Fuji which was also the start of the famous Mt
Fuji motorcycle race. When Mr Iwashita
passed his collection was sold and this 1957 Yamaha Y-A1 was shipped to the
United States. This is a fully running,
all original condition Yamaha Y-A1.
