Yes Made in Japan is a brand in itself.
I own 2 Kawasakis, of which the Z900 is 45 years old 162000 km, the ZZR is 25 years old and 80000km. Then a Suzuki GSXR 1000 k6 which has 35000km of which most of its early life, upto 19000km, was spent as a track bike. I converted it back to a road bike . All these bikes are completely reliable. I am now 70 and have ridden only Japanese motircycles since 1970.
Best of the best! When someone says German enginering.... I just laugh.
They are so reliable...i love these bikes. Exceptional!
Never cared about brands, used to switch my bikes every 2 years. The BMW's were so unreliable, I needed a second bike for a fallback. Driving all year, every day for 15 years. After my new Harley started to rust in the second year, decided to have at look at Honda. What struck me, all my friends driving Honda where loving their bikes.
So I got my first Honda, a VFR 1200 X. This was 6 years ago. 40'000 miles on the clock and it still runs like new. Sold my second bike, don't need it anymore.
I admit, I've been converted to Honda lover... Deep respect to all the ingenious Honda workers.
I also own two hondas and the first I got has almost 100.000km on the clock, running like it's new.
Honda is just the best in terms of reliability and for daily use it's the most important thing
Suzuki?
Japan understand metallurgy down to the bone. They were #2 in sword making and gun making.
@Ohana Ross-Roberts troll
I’ve owned two Honda dirt bikes, well one was actually street/trail XR 650L but both were extremely reliable. I changed tires, oil, and put gas in it and that’s all.
The workers are so dedicated and focused, no talking, joking, etc..very high standards.
Thats the reason Japan is Japan.
Yeah while the cameras are on lol
@@ratneshverma8344 @@@a@
Very hard for workers...
You wish. Very high depression and low salary, a feeling of life being taken from you, thanks God I found another job.
My FAV things about Japanese car/motorcycle/electronics factories are the people who work hard in spite of problems and get it right the first time (unlike many other countries) and the sounds you hear which make the factory sound like a Japanese video game arcade.
Proud UK owner of a 1988 Africa Twin - still running like new. Thank you to all Honda workers. Maybe time to upgrade!
Does 1988 bike look just like these bikes?
@@theone2be33 ,no,looks much better
Keep it Brendan , already fast appreciating , the old ones look better in my opinion.
That's one ugly ass motorcycle

Thank you all the employees at Honda!
You have given us great bikes, which we are proud to own!!

@@CarlosAlberto-ii1li I ride a six cylinder turbo charged Shittake
The logistics is mind-blowing, and that's just one model!
Also, the pride these people take in their product and their work is wonderful to see.
'Made in Japan' is a badge of honor.
My Africa Twin runs so good and has been perfectly reliable. I love my Honda!
When you see the words "Made in Japan" you can be sure that you get the best motorcycle!!!
So true

I'm an American and I agree 100%
I love Honda ! 💓
and the bad conditions to exploite workers
Honda workers respect you people do great professional job, love my Honda bike never lets me down down 😍
The dual clutch transmission on the Africa Twin of one of my friends locked in sixth gear and he couldn’t start it anymore. It seems more Africa Twins have the same problem.
there like robots??? not a sound??? imagine doin that every day????
@@qpqp1236 It's not common, it seems to happen to people who don't take it out of gear before turning the bike off. I've had DCT since 2016 with 165,000 trouble free km's.
@Jacob Riley I was stationed in Japan for two years while in the USN. Labor is one of their few exports-very few natural resources!-John in Texas
@@qpqp1236 Your friend needs more practice learning how to properly operate a motorcycle clutch. Many new riders think it's like a video game. Just press a button and go.. They either end up harming the motorcycle, themselves or both. For the beginner rider I'd suggest taking a riding class to familiarize yourself with all the safe motorcycle riding procedures.
This is part of the genius of human beings, that we as a species can design, build and operate a factory like this
Inspirational! Still Made In Japan by a team of professionals dedicated to their founder's vision. Mr. Honda would be proud!
I love that these are actually made in Japan still you can see the pride in the workmanship and quality don't change honda 👌
The Japanese people are awesome. Did you know that 75% of Japan is actually wasteland?!! The Japanese are literally 4x as awesome as people think they are!
It says Honda Africa
@@pete2376 Honda Africa Twin motorcycle model not country. If your joking I can't tell.
@@RicardoDizonLefthanded it was a mistake on my part I miss understood the name for location but I rewatched it and got it right
A lot of hondas are also made in Thailand
To all the very skilled Japanese worker, Thank you to have done such a good job on my amazing Africa Twin
This is incredible to see. Huge respect for the Japanese motorcycle craft!🥂
I like the japanese for thier passion regarding thier products and quality. They really seem to care. Imho they can be proud of what they achieved as a nation since WW2. Greetings from Germany.
Thank you workers of Honda for making us such worldwide good machines. Have a good day 🙏🏻
Aarrr you berry velcom white babarian its wat we riv for
Is it me or I don't see one African on this platform. Yet called African production? They must be out cleaning the floors and toilets

Do u really own a africa twin? 😂
I worked at that factory as an English teacher a while back. They work hard there, nice guys too. All of them drive Hondas to work. Lots of family men.
Brilliant set up with factory and a test track at the foot of Aso.

Nós brasileiros curtimos muito essa máquina sonho de consumo 😍
Просто глаз радуется, жаль, что никогда не купить такой новый!
The best Japanese engineering mechanics at work, as you notice nobody is talking, they just crack on with the work, like a clock work, no wasting any time on nuisance. You can never go wrong with Japanese unbeatable technology, much love to you Japan :)
Because they take pride in their duty. Not like in the western world, where youd hear complaints about "these white uniforms make me look so fat".
in the philippines more talking than work haha
Not talking is mean stressed 🤣😂😂😂
Keep talking
Clearly you can feel the pride, workmanship, attention to detail, and mastery of skill here. Love Honda's.
The complexity of modern motorcycles is phenomenal - when I compare it with my old Matchless 500 single, vintage about 1960.
I have a 1980s CM400A, and it runs awesome. I change the oil and filter every year. I always use the factory brand, no compromise.
Excellent, Attention to Detail and “Made in Japan”/Assembled 🇯🇵, The mark of a Reliable Motorcycle 👍
I wish they were reliable. My brand new Africa Twin had engine problems within the first week of ownership. It spent many many months in the shop. It went back and forth to Honda dealerships for 2 years… Still has a terrible knock. Nobody could figure it out, and Honda would not buy it back from me or let me pay the difference on a new one. I tried. Did I have a lemon? Maybe, but if you start searching, you will find that a lot of these bikes have engine problems.
Just bought a GS1200. No knocks, no choking or dying. A bunch of people put 200K on their GS.
Even though their work seemed relentless and at quite a pace, for a full shift, it was somewhat relaxing and tranquil to watch. Honda, you make great bikes.
They make great everything.
@@jimmyb4982 Not pizzas
If they did, they’d be great 🍕🥇
I bet working there is either like being a one-legged man in an ass kicking contest or it's completely mind-numbing. I've worked on a vehicle assembly line before. It was both those things. I *hated* it!
It's a shithole, I've been there for a year, worst job that I've done in life, depressing and tiring
Brasileiro e Japonês são muito empenhados no que fazem é caprichosos tbm,made in Brazil ou japan é de qualidade.🇧🇷🇯🇵
É cirúrgico o processo! Carinho e atenção para colocar as bitéla pra rodar! Foi um prazer imenso participar do treinamento em INDAIATUBA SP com a equipe do CETH
Hi, I will never buy another Honda Motorcycle simply because the one I own is perfect and I'm never selling it.
And so what is the name of the model motobike n'y Honda ?
Mine is an older Africa Twin XRV 750 2003 with 25000 miles I've had it for 5 years
@Malcolm Reynolds A real riders bike and a work of art... enjoy

Got a ‘96 Dominator which never misses a beat. Picking up my 2018 Africa Twin Adventure this weekend!! Thank you Honda. The best.
Excelente película, parabéns a Honda, pela organização e limpeza dos postos de trabalho e seus funcionários ♤
To work for Honda as a Japanese is really an honour. I bought an Arai in Japan, the way they make you feel for the purchase is amazing.
Although I knew my measurements, it took 2 guys to attend to me. I’ll always remember that purchase.
My next bike is a Africa twin or a Tenere. I’ve got until COVID ends to decide.
I rode a Diavel, GS1200 & now an XSR900.
Covid ended months ago
@@kevindarkstar not here in india and other asian countries
So what did u get
It’s May 2022 , the stability of cash flow is back to pre-covid levels. I’ve finally pulled the trigger on ……, drumroll…,, S….H Gen3. Suzuki Hayabusa Gen3 in white. It’s been awesome so far. I had the Suzuki GSXs 1000 & Kawasaki GTR 1400 after my XSR900.
Reason for my purchase, I love the in-line 4 engine in the Suzuki. I tried the GTR to manage the weight. It was more than manageable.
So a Japanese reliable machine with the preferred engine & not to mention the sound it makes plus all the modern upgrades, cruise control, QS , hillstop assist, 6 axis IMU & the customisation available & ease of navigation through its menu….. that’s just on paper.
The ride blew me away….. effortless power , smooth as butter much lighter than the GTR. Not forgetting there are luggage options that have made it possible to commute daily on this motorcycle. It’s a breeze cutting through traffic, the clutch is light.
All this package & reliability at a price of $54000 SIN dollars, much cheaper than an AT. ($59000) & GS ($73000) the performance is definitely far superior & the comfort wasn’t compromised despite the seating position, in fact at 200kmh it’s less brutal on your upper body than the GS … I’ve tried . So far I’ve only rode only 7 hours with my wife on my back for a warm up tour. The bike wasn’t the problem but my wife forcing her weight on me as I pushed faster was taxing on my 75kg frame.
Next month doing a solo trip to Thailand 2000km . I’m really looking forward to it.
Thanks Suzuki for reviving the Hayabusa.
@@rajindarsingh1417 I went from 4 cylinder to a husqvarna 701 and slow travel and this living in Germany with the famous Autobahn.
Фантастика.... на сборочном конвейере работают люди в белоснежной спецодежде. Респект вам Хонда.
А пописать-то отпускают?
Show de bola ver nascendo o motor da belíssima África twin!🥰💖
I am a proud owner of CRF1000, done over 70k kms on it, love the bike!
The pride, humility and work ethic the Japanese have is second to none and that comes from an American, " Impressive"
How does it come from America?
@@hornblowrfilms928 i said and that' coming from "AN AMERICAN" meaning i the American
Oh sorry , geez I'm a git

Darryl 666. Thanks for your comment. I agree the quiet efficiency is good to see. Never owned a Honda but would be happy to.
Que lindo ver um povo trabalhador principalmente detalhista e focado sempre com a qualidade e por isso que nós brasileiros respeitamos muito o Japão e seu povo.
Damn! Japan manufacturing super clean, organize. Good jobs guys
Most of my life I’ve always had Hondas. And I’m sticking with them!
I own a 1985 Honda CT110. A variant of the most widely produced vehicle on the planet. Original engine & still runs & rides great. Thank-you to Soichiro Honda a brilliant engineer & visionary. Rest in peace
'84 & '85 CB650 Nighthawks here. Can't beat them for smoothness, fun & reliability.
This was explaned why motorclycles " made in Japan " have the best performent
Simple, yet so precise.
They are the masters of production.
I hope those people know how many great memories and adventures the machines they're building provide! Thank you, Honda!
I'm closing in on 140K on my NC700X, absolutely loving it!
My legendary Honda Wave(Honda Dream) here is still running. Kudos to Honda for making motorcycles as partbof our good memories.
13 years later and my Fireblade is still running. Thank you Honda.
Хороший мотоцикл!
Ответственные люди!
Спасибо за хороший труд и продукцию!
The one and the 0nly we must Say..
MADE IN JAPAN 💪🇯🇵💪
Wow I was impressed that no one was on a cell phone texting and goofing off. Great job Honda!!
Well there is multiple cameras pointed at them operated by a team or person.
it's kinda hard on an assembly line, everything's on a belt and timed and the next person is waiting on you to finish. You'd have to be a reeeaal goofball to be goofing off in all that.
@@gwot yeah well I guess you haven’t seen what’s the so called work force personnel is available lately, not the guys I got anyway.
@@angelitowest5670 I have no doubt there are people who do it, but all I'm saying is the job itself makes it harder to. When you slack off, every hard worker down the line will be yelling at you.
or idle talking like my union workers do in the kitchen endless drama.One of then screwed up 4 burgers because could not focus on temps because her personal drama was more important.That's whats wrong with America people dont take tasks seriously.
Best wishes to all at Honda ! The Africa Twin is my dream bike !

I thought there would me more robots and less manual assembling. There sure is alot of people bolting those together!
I think the robots do the machining, but hand assembly is still the more cost effective for small parts.
Maybe those that look like humans are really robots.
It's a volume thing. Vehicles with higher production numbers can afford higher levels of automation. Also, motorcycle assembly is generally lighter and can be worked on with less ergonomic concern than with cars. However, this was basically engine build and final assembly. There were a lot of pre-assembled components brought in that may have had more automation involved. (I design custom automated manufacturing equipment)
It’s great for humans ..robots will kill the world
@@donbrashsux it's great for the world the robots will kill the humans.
Each one of those bikes are built to last.pure quality
Is it just me or there is something special about looking at a clean brand new engine? 😍
Улыбнуло когда маленький японский человек покатил большой готовый мотоцикл.
I just purchased a XR650L and absolutely love it! The quality and workmanship of Honda is second to none. Thank you Japan, the rest of the world looks up to you as a hard-working, honest and diligent people. Again thank you
Absolutely right.... great Engineering !
This is really cool. You can tell these guys know what they’re doing.
One of the best , cleanest products from Honda 😍
Incredible company and machines. I love my new GW DCT Tour. I had the honor to see a whole engine on a pallet, new. Just work of art. So many moving parts under your legs. What really struck me was the coin trick sitting on the engine. It is not a joke. The 1/4 coin does not drop. Honda uses good seals and bearings and that is why they just don't leak oils.
Damn I just love the Japanese when it comes to manufacturing. Absolutely love that Honda Africa twin, beautiful it is, wish I could afford one , I would die a happy man.
Great Job to all, very professional I have expected nothing less from Honda.
Yes, you really do get what you pay for.
If it's a quality build you want, there's
nothing better than a Honda Motorbike,
made in Japan. Technology is great, but
Pride is still a valuable asset there.
I've owned four Honda's in my life and they have never let me down. 👌
Honda has such a great reputation because their quality control is incredible, and their designs are extremely solid and thoroughly tested! Some of the best products in the world come from Honda :) I am a loyal customer of theirs, as well as Yamaha motorcycles and instruments. But Honda’s vehicles cannot be beat!
They have the same drive for quality as Toyota does. They make their engines with way more margin for failure. I owned a Toyota Hiace, finest van I ever had. Best driver's seat too.
Que hermoso!Todo fantasticamente sincronizado.Felicitaciones a Honda.
From Mexico, thank you Japan, you guys are the best.
13:22 that is the guy that really knows, if he approves, the bike is ready!! amazing materials and complexity. Very professional hand work! The only bad think is... now I want one! haha
Quite impressive, thank you for sharing. Love my Honda.

Segunda vez que assisto esse vídeo da vontade de ter uma moto desta linda e parece que todos os funcionários dá dedicação e amor pelo seu trabalho.
Wow, really cool to see inside the factory that makes these amazing bikes. Honda is awesome!
Made in Japan = instant seal of approval for long term reliability 👍
I was a kid in the 50's when we were beginning to see a lot of merchandise
arriving from Japan. Most of it was crap, not unlike what we see from China now.
Japan was quick to learn that the junk they were exporting just wasn't going to
get it with western consumers. The beginning of the uptick in quality that sticks
in my mind is the appearance of good quality transistor radios. They took the
market by storm. Then, other electronics, autos, motorcycles ETC. Every product
Was of A1 (or maybe a few A2's) quality. It hasn't changed. I don't have to tell
you what Made In Japan means now. Japanese are amazing people. They see
a concept, study it and if it looks like a winner, it will be in production in no time
at all. They don't fuck around. We could learn a lot.
Absolutely love my Africa Twin DCT amazing machine 🙂
Look at how perfect and beautiful those castings are.
