Exhibition
Two Passions, One Dream
―Honda and Yamaha's Respective WGP Challenges―
MotoGP™ Grand Prix of Japan Commemorative Collaboration Exhibition of Honda and Yamaha Part 1
We will introduce the history of Honda and Yamaha's challenges in the World Championship over multiple years starting this year, in conjunction with the MotoGP™ event.
In this inaugural year, we look back on the journey of Honda and Yamaha's "challenge to the world," who achieved their first victory in the Road Race World Championship (hereafter WGP) in the 1960s and continue to compete in MotoGP™ today. Both companies won in the WGP during the 1960s and have since earned numerous honors. Honda aimed for the world's top by enhancing the high-revving, high-output capabilities of four-stroke engines, while Yamaha pursued the potential of two-stroke engines amid the dominance of four-stroke engines, each taking a different approach to reach the pinnacle of the world.
This exhibition features representative WGP racers from the 1960s by Honda and Yamaha, as well as the latest MotoGP™ championship machines. From next year onward, we plan to present a series showcasing the ongoing challenges of these two domestic 2 wheels manufacturers up to the present day. Please be sure to take a look.
