Yamaha News...

[James P]

I've already posted this on the TZR250 forum, but it will likely be of interest to members of this forum too.

I stumbled upon these while looking for something else and am sure they will be of interest to some.

Yamaha News was a magazine published several times a year for the information of Yamaha dealers and contains info on new models, merchandise, displays, events, racing etc. There was a version for Japanese domestic dealers and an English-language version for foreign markets.
The JDM version of course has Japanese text, but contains many interesting pictures. Yamaha has provided each magazine in PDF format via a pictorial index on its web-site.

The pictorial index will give you an idea what is inside each of the JDM issues.

Yamaha News (JDM version), 1959-2004: http://global.yamaha-motor.com/jp/showr ... _news_jpn/

Yamaha News (Foreign version), 1966-2009: http://global.yamaha-motor.com/jp/showr ... _news_eng/
