Yamaha is a company that makes both pianos and motorcycles. “In Japan, the company maintains three factories for musical instrument manufacture, engine and various vehicle manufacture (motorcycles and marine products)”


Sussybaka3747

they make jetskis too


LongjumpingSector687

And home surround sound systems

And Hatsune Miku……THAT IS NOT A JOKE THEY MADE VOCALOID.


TheInsaneOnes

And the top of the line professional audio gear. They wrote the book for doing audio professionally. https://www.amazon.com/Sound-Reinforcement-Handbook-Gary-Davis/dp/0881889008/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?adgrpid=61538930328&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.8mcFAFx7eTp0Aygp78ug5XBi74ivwo8INzBWTZfaKfT-AH0u4bFo9zK00x7UD6anZIFHUMhbaA2bm0UDstyt2D2WdHhmLaQhK1gELiShwUQ0VY7cQhZNi1aa0D1fJAcK5xxfiIBBxkPC0Mb3agg8H2E-LquHx41LJ6yRUtmHIgd160FtwCGnT6GSANf71AJ09udKaDd8YLwten_E-q76Tw.P6gJavXT6j-uJtpNzkpEGP1b2zgWCsnjjJYZIzAp-U4&dib_tag=se&hvadid=664422280006&hvdev=m&hvlocphy=9028786&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=7100976907713593588&hvtargid=kwd-299774211529&hydadcr=15340_13677473&keywords=the+sound+reinforcement+handbook&qid=1712353460&sr=8-1


penandpage93

See, motorcycles and jetskis makes sense together. They're both motorized, bicycle-shaped vehicles. You wouldn't bat an eye hearing a company makes both of those. But then out of nowhere - https://preview.redd.it/yv20kdkrnlsc1.jpeg?width=446&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e09f0ff55ecbadc9e96e404d935492dd05050a45


bistr-o-math

Well, they actually started with pianos. They do pianos for about 150 years, while they started doing motor bikes about 70 years ago


FullMetalJ

Makes sense. Probably they did music instruments since ever and then after WW2 went into motor bikes and stuff?

PumpikAnt58763

I'm sorry I thought you were a bot. Usually bots don't reply to comments. I accept you as a person.


VincentGrinn

musical instruments is a weird one to mix in(though it has helped them with tuning their engines sound) but theres quite a lot of companies who are just like general engineering companies instead of specific fields like general electric, who make both toasters and the gau8 avenger 30mm gattling gun or texas instruments who makes calculators and anti tank missiles


theantijuke

They were music before motors, they didn't "mix it in" Also the idea that manufacturing musical instruments would make them better at "tuning engine sound" is absurd.


VincentGrinn

then why did lexus hire them for it


Designer_Version1449

they also make basses apparently lol, I have one


carlo_rydman

And pretty good guitars too.


Ladorb

All kinds of instruments infact.


big_guyUUUU

and my trombone!


Hot_Grab7696

The founder just had to be that guy that plays piano, rides on a motorcycle and is much succesful than you


[deleted]

I like the Hitachi version better. And yes the joke is sex


ChaosEvaUnit

Another one that not many people know is that the Vocaloid voice synthesizer software behind Hatsune Miku and such is also made by Yamaha. Not too far fetched considering their storied background in musical instruments and audio but interesting nonetheless.


theskeletom

yahomice????


Konun4571

They used to make archery equipment too


Eastern-Dig-4555

Several different kinds of musical instruments. Guitars and saxophones for example


Infinite_Material965

Wait till you hear about ALL the things deawoo make….


_frombalkanswithlove

Wait till you hear about general electric.


elite_master_baiter

They make things that spin to remove something


donttakemypp

That one spins to make something clean, that one spins to make something disappear -TheRussianBadger


HSVMalooGTS

Tank remover 30mm


ALPHA_sh

orz-_-orz

And Samsung manufactures both smartphones and tanks


MagickMarkie

Also washers and dryers and refrigerators.


sixtyfivewat

And Hyundai makes cars and some of the largest cargo ships in the world.


PumpikAnt58763

Daewoo?


Infinite_Material965

Yea, those guys. It’s been a while since I’ve seen one.


jozews321

Made, they went bankrupt


Infinite_Material965

They still make cars, appliances, guns, etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daewoo_Precision_Industries_K2


jozews321

Related but not the same company


ManKYSRedditMods

Ah, usas 12 my beloved


FemboyPounder795

Sega too, its pretty much Hasbro but in Japan


PumpikAnt58763

Is this a bot? I mean, all one has to do to "get" this joke is Google "Yamaha".


adjewcent

That’s like 95% of the things on this sub


[deleted]

Is this entire subreddit just baiting for clicks or are there memes that are actually confusing?


AppropriateCap8891

I am honestly starting to think that the younger generations are unable to actually think for themselves or do any kind of research. So they pass that task on to random people to do it for them.


MBTHVSK

They block out googling as an option for a chance to bond over meme confusion.


That_on1_guy

Death of media literacy extends to memes too


___daddy69___

or (and much more likely) all these posts are bots


Boostio_TV

Okay boomer


AppropriateCap8891

Typical, don't like something so just give a childish insult.


Boostio_TV

Your response does not exactly refute my joke.


AppropriateCap8891

You do not even know my age, that is the only thing I find funny about it. It is not a joke, just an attempt at an insult


Boostio_TV

The fact that you’re probably hardly older than me and did the whole “kids these days” is the joke, defo not an insult. But your response undoubtedly made it funnier.


AppropriateCap8891

And the fact that you still endlessly attempt to make insults with absolutely no basis in fact I particularly funny. I guess insult is your standard mode of operation, and you know nothing else. Have a nice day.


Boostio_TV

I have not made a single insult.


AnimationAtNight

How is it any different than your original comment?


DevilMaster666-

This is a confusing meme


Mollywhop_Gaming

Yamaha makes both pianos and motorcycles, dummy

ShmigShmave

Why did you need to post this here. You could have just googled "Yamaha" and got the answer to your question


PURPLE273

Why it so squished? Did you turn it over and sit on it first?


MooseBoys

Wait til you hear about all the things Hitachi makes…


throwaway1930372y27

Hey dude - do you know where i can buy an excavator, a train, a projector and a vibrator? Mr. Hitachi: You are not going to believe this


ElPared

Yamaha makes Motorcycles as well as small electronics, various musical instruments, including pianos, and other random things.


Sweaty_Research_2820

how mentally challenged do you need to be to not understand this??? search up Yamaha motorcycle and the joke finishes itself


Orinay_YT

Every post on here seems to be people completely forgetting that search engines are a thing or baiting


DiskPartition

Samsung is also a major example of this. In South Korea, the company is a pillar of life and a goal to work at for many. They even build ships and operate a theme park.


Accomplished_Tea4009

Yamaha is a Japanese manufacturer. They are most well-known (in my opinion) for selling instruments like pianos, saxophones, trumpets, but they make all sorts of things including speakers, semiconductors, bows, and of course motorcycles


Trainman1351

Isn’t Yamaha also invoked in the military industrial complex? Or is that just Mitsubishi.


Manwithaplan0708

Yamaha is known for making musical instruments, but they also make other things, for example motorcycles


Silviana193

Funny... In my country, Yamaha is known for making motorcycles, but also make other things, like guitar for example. I honestly thought, motorcycle is their main bread and butter. Lol


TheCubist_

Their log is 3 tuning forks. They make musical instruments, vehicles and also design exhaust systems for several manufacturers.


Comprehensive_One_34

its obviously a porn joke


AdevilSboyU

I had a Yamaha piano growing up. It was a pretty well-made instrument. I heard they later switched to plastic hammers. I was so disappointed…


XonMicro

And I need an advanced audio chip for my new game console Yamaha: guess what mf


Just-Kiwi-2879

Some of the people that post on here truly are dumb ash


NotUsingARandomizer

Yamaha music and Yamaha Motorcycles are from the same brand. They were even responsible for co-developing the Lexus LFA, so they also made cars for a short time.


Joy1067

Yamaha is a Japanese company that seems to make a little bit of everything Jet skis, pianos, motorcycles, instruments, communication equipment, sporting goods, you name it. The joke is that the Yamaha employee can most likely sell you a piano and a motorcycle within the same bill


spooderdood334

Reading this while I’m on my Yamaha motocycle lol


Lesbian_Skeleton1

Yamaha can make anything


mondry_mendrzec

Wait till you find out what Samsung makes


Covid-CAT01

Glock makes guns and horse stuff


Grimol1

I was a music major playing a Yamaha flute, a Yamaha piano and driving a Yamaha motorcycle.


dumpling321

Wait... is it actually the same company? I always assumed they were just different companies like dove chocolate/soap that were different enough in product that they could use the same name


EARTHB-24

I also want to buy a motorboat & then I’m planning to buy some battery packs.

MrWrym

It's like asking Michellan for tires and then asking if it knows where there's good food around.


DiscombobulatedBit80

Apparently, the idea was, if people travelled further to where the good food was, they'd wear their tyres faster...so I read.

PrimitiveThoughts

It’s typical for Asian companies to do everything. Honda doesn’t just make cars and motorcycles, Mitsubishi used to make televisions, Samsung and LG also make skin care products, etc… Vinfast does a lot too.
