Information on old Yamaha Dealer

[dltowers]

Does anyone know if there is a source for old archive records on closed Yamaha Dealers?
My parents owned a motorcycle dealership from 1964 until 1982 in Paris, Texas.
They sold Ducati, BSA, Triumph, Yamaha, and Harley-Davidson.
I have contacted Yamaha Headquarters in CA, but gained very little information.
Any help would be appreciated.

Here is a photo of a newspaper ad from November 11, 1968 of a Yamaha YL-1 Twin Jet.

If this is in respect of your enquiry on the BSA Yam Dealer in Paris TX, why not try to contact the current Yamaha Dealer there,
they must know something of how this came about ?

Karma, My parents sold the dealership to the present owners.
What I am looking for is archive information (dealer franchise agreements, etc) that the Corporate Office might have.
Thanks.

great flares , not much of a fan of the bike , but im sure now a collectors item

The Dealership agreement etc would be confidential, they'd be reluctant to disclose this ?
You'd be lucky if they still have stuff back that far too, plenty places have a regular cleanout. ?
You'd need a contact inside yamaha to access that.

I once had a (minor) crash when the flares got caught in the brakelever, couldn't put my foot down.
Lucky it was lawn.
