Description from the seller
The Yamaha YA-1 is the first motorcycle produced by Yamaha between 1955 and 1958. A very sought-after and true collector's item, therefore. The motorcycle we offer is from model year 1957.
The motorcycle has been recently imported from Japan. (all import duties and VAT paid).
The motorcycle is largely complete and original. A nice project for the enthusiast or collector.
We have not yet checked the motorcycle since import, so it may require inspection and starting if you want to get it running.
Comes with Japanese export documents and translation; if desired we can arrange for Vignette 705.
Worldwide shipping possible on request.
A rare piece of Yamaha history that seldom comes up for sale, for the serious collector or museum.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
