Product Description

Yamaha At The TT Races 1961 – 1968
This photographic history of the Yamaha Japans participation in the TT races of the 1960s is launched on the fiftieth anniversary of the marques official debut in The Worlds Greatest Road Races in 1961 – with all due apologies to Sonny Angel.

Front Cover: The 1964 TT and Phil Read on his RD56 leads Tarquinio Provini (Benelli), although Old Elbows has a ten second advantage on corrected time. In keeping with our usual policy for front cover shots, the scene is Quarter Bridge.

Back Cover: Akiyasu Motohashi leaps Ballaugh Bridge en route to third place in the 1967 125cc TT.
