The bike which caught the attention of Bangladeshi bikers was the Yamaha FZS series. In early 2010 that was different concept bike, with the fatter tire, shorter wheelbase & not too much power from the engine but time to time many people understood the concept that Yamaha concentrated more on the controlling and braking of the bike rather than anything else, a concept which many other brands later followed.

Speed lovers of Bangladesh fell in with love with Yamaha for the Yamaha R15 V2. It wasn’t just the looks of the bike but it also had lots of punch from the engine and the split seat, sitting in traffic it was hard not to look at that bike in those days. Yamaha is very active in MotoGP, the most premium class of 2 wheel motorcycle racing.  Yamaha has won 14 MotoGP World Championship as a motorcycle constructer, which is the 3^rd highest among 35 brands who ever participated in MotoGP.Yamaha motorcycles Ltd in collaboration with ACI Motors Ltd has done a great deal for the bikers in Bangladesh. Some of the notable work has to be Dhaka Bike Carnival (2017),  Shadhinota Shopoth (2018) & Cox’s Bazar Riding Fiesta (2019). On behalf of the whole BikeBD team, we want to wish Yamaha Motor Company Ltd all the very best in Bangladesh.
