Today, we celebrate a....
“Golden Anniversary”....
Exactly “50” years ago, on November 1, 1969, the Official Yamaha Dealer News Publication, for December, 1969, was distributed to each Franchise Dealer.
There was “One” centralized theme of this special edition....
The public announcement, of the upcoming release, of the brands’ very “FIRST” 4-stroke Motorcycle, the ‘70 XS-1.
This event was a gigantic milestone, in the history of the Tuning Fork Brand, and something, that the Dealer Network, had been waiting on for way too long....
This SOHC, would go on to have the historical distinction, of having the longest production run, of any motorcycle ever produced by the Yamaha Motor Company...."
And I'm ready for the celebration year.
