Some of them like to build devices that move and make them work others prefer to disassemble, reassemble, or remodel things, and then the are those who will do some of everything and not settle with just one or the other.<br \/>\nThere are truly countless ways to enjoy motorcycles!<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\t\t<div id=\"fws_69d6fdfc607a1\"  data-column-margin=\"none\" data-midnight=\"dark\"  class=\"wpb_row vc_row-fluid vc_row full-width-content  vc_row-o-equal-height vc_row-flex  vc_row-o-content-middle  \"  style=\"padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; \"><div class=\"row-bg-wrap\" data-bg-animation=\"none\" data-bg-overlay=\"false\"><div class=\"inner-wrap\"><div class=\"row-bg\"  style=\"\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"row_col_wrap_12 col span_12 dark left\">\n\t<div  class=\"vc_col-sm-6 wpb_column column_container vc_column_container col no-extra-padding inherit_tablet inherit_phone \"  data-padding-pos=\"all\" data-has-bg-color=\"false\" data-bg-color=\"\" data-bg-opacity=\"1\" data-animation=\"\" data-delay=\"0\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"vc_column-inner\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-with-aniamtion-wrap \" data-max-width=\"100%\" data-max-width-mobile=\"default\" data-shadow=\"none\" data-animation=\"ro-reveal-from-left\" >\r\n      <div class=\"inner\">\r\n        <div class=\"hover-wrap\"> \r\n          <div class=\"hover-wrap-inner\">\r\n            <img class=\"img-with-animation skip-lazy \" data-delay=\"0\" height=\"853\" width=\"1280\" data-animation=\"ro-reveal-from-left\" src=\"https:\/\/jb-power.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/\u7f8e\u85e4_\u5b9a_Jyo_Bito_\u30af\u30e9\u30f3\u30af_\u30b7\u30e3\u30d5\u30c8_Crank_Shaft_\u6e2c\u5b9a_Measurement_1280px_02.jpg\" alt=\"Classic Motorcycle Parts\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jb-power.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/\u7f8e\u85e4_\u5b9a_Jyo_Bito_\u30af\u30e9\u30f3\u30af_\u30b7\u30e3\u30d5\u30c8_Crank_Shaft_\u6e2c\u5b9a_Measurement_1280px_02.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/jb-power.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/\u7f8e\u85e4_\u5b9a_Jyo_Bito_\u30af\u30e9\u30f3\u30af_\u30b7\u30e3\u30d5\u30c8_Crank_Shaft_\u6e2c\u5b9a_Measurement_1280px_02-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jb-power.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/\u7f8e\u85e4_\u5b9a_Jyo_Bito_\u30af\u30e9\u30f3\u30af_\u30b7\u30e3\u30d5\u30c8_Crank_Shaft_\u6e2c\u5b9a_Measurement_1280px_02-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/jb-power.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/\u7f8e\u85e4_\u5b9a_Jyo_Bito_\u30af\u30e9\u30f3\u30af_\u30b7\u30e3\u30d5\u30c8_Crank_Shaft_\u6e2c\u5b9a_Measurement_1280px_02-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/jb-power.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/\u7f8e\u85e4_\u5b9a_Jyo_Bito_\u30af\u30e9\u30f3\u30af_\u30b7\u30e3\u30d5\u30c8_Crank_Shaft_\u6e2c\u5b9a_Measurement_1280px_02-16x12.jpg 16w, https:\/\/jb-power.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/\u7f8e\u85e4_\u5b9a_Jyo_Bito_\u30af\u30e9\u30f3\u30af_\u30b7\u30e3\u30d5\u30c8_Crank_Shaft_\u6e2c\u5b9a_Measurement_1280px_02-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/jb-power.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/\u7f8e\u85e4_\u5b9a_Jyo_Bito_\u30af\u30e9\u30f3\u30af_\u30b7\u30e3\u30d5\u30c8_Crank_Shaft_\u6e2c\u5b9a_Measurement_1280px_02-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1450px) 75vw, (min-width: 1000px) 85vw, 100vw\" \/>\r\n          <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n\n\t<div  class=\"vc_col-sm-6 wpb_column column_container vc_column_container col padding-6-percent padding-4-percent_tablet padding-2-percent_phone \"  data-padding-pos=\"all\" data-has-bg-color=\"false\" data-bg-color=\"\" data-bg-opacity=\"1\" data-animation=\"\" data-delay=\"0\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"vc_column-inner\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\r\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element  wpb_animate_when_almost_visible wpb_fadeInUp fadeInUp\" >\r\n\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\r\n\t\t<p>Q: How do you look back on your motorcycle life?<br \/>\nA: It&#8217;s the best life.

For example, if you are not good at cooking, you may die of food poisoning, considering that, anything can be somewhat dangerous. If you look at a motorcycle from this point of view, it is nothing particularly risky but safe, interesting, and very meaningful. However, it naturally requires sufficient skill, knowledge, and rational judgment.If you twist the throttle you will go fast, so naturally, you need the have the talent and ability to control it. This holds true for many other things as well so I don\u2019t believe that motorcycles are exceptionally dangerous. However, when an accident occurs, you are not surrounded by an iron box like in a car, so the probability of injury is naturally high. That&#8217;s why you should be careful, or prepare to avoid harm. For example, you can find water in the mountains and a river, but that doesn&#8217;t mean that it is safe whatever you drink. In order to stay healthy, you have to distinguish between unsafe and clean water. This ability is naturally challenged every day. In order to survive, you cannot live without the ability to judge such kind of things. Riding a motorcycle requires attention and something like the ability of mindful thinking, which I believe to very important for human beings.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\t\t<div id=\"fws_69d6fdfc61771\"  data-column-margin=\"none\" data-midnight=\"dark\"  class=\"wpb_row vc_row-fluid vc_row full-width-content  vc_row-o-equal-height vc_row-flex  vc_row-o-content-middle  \"  style=\"padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; \"><div class=\"row-bg-wrap\" data-bg-animation=\"none\" data-bg-overlay=\"false\"><div class=\"inner-wrap\"><div class=\"row-bg\"  style=\"\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"row_col_wrap_12 col span_12 dark left\">\n\t<div  class=\"vc_col-sm-6 wpb_column column_container vc_column_container col has-animation padding-6-percent padding-4-percent_tablet padding-2-percent_phone \"  data-padding-pos=\"left-right\" data-has-bg-color=\"false\" data-bg-color=\"\" data-bg-opacity=\"1\" data-animation=\"fade-in-from-bottom\" data-delay=\"0\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"vc_column-inner\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\r\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element  wpb_animate_when_almost_visible wpb_fadeInUp fadeInUp\" >\r\n\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\r\n\t\t<p>Q: Is there a place where you want to ride your motorcycle now?<br \/>\nA: I want to go anywhere.

Employee education is obligatory, but my biggest project is to cut away the mountain behind my company and build a 30,000m\u00b2 factory garden. I want to create the paradigm of a park-like factory that has never been seen in the countryside before. A place where people can work comfortably as human beings, very different from the common image of a dirty factory.

I seem to have no outstanding abilities and there were times when I was silenced by the people and community around me, which almost made me give up. No matter what I tried I never seem to do it right and failed time after time, but my parents always believed in me and supported me without complaints.<br \/>\nOn a road trip through the United States, I meet Mr. Hideoshi (Pops) Yoshimura and his son Fujio who introduced me to the world of motorcycle racing. Later on, the Americans Ron Pierce and Steve McLaughlin invited and Masafumi Ito finally persuaded me to work for Honda.<\/p>\n<p>I am most grateful to Mr. Michihiko Akishika of Honda R&amp;D as well as to the German engineer Udo Gietl who taught us everything about engineering from the basics to advanced practical applications. After becoming independent and founding BITO R&amp;D, there were countless hurdles to overcome as I started with almost no business experience. During those times of poverty and anxiety about the future, I was greatly supported by my wife, employees, and friends. Just to start with Jeff Roper, Andrew Burgess of Cosworth Engineering UK, Raymond Bailey of AP Racing, Dr. Zambelli of Techno Magnesio Italy, the engineers of the Suzuki and Kawasaki Heavy Industries over various Japanese parts manufacturers like Keihin, Kayaba and F.C.C. to the chief-editors, test riders, photographers, and editorial staff of magazines I can&#8217;t count how many wonderful people I met that generously helped and guided me on my way. I am infinitely grateful to these people as without them BITO R&amp;D might have never succeeded.<\/p>\n<p>However, the greatest help came from the countless customers who bought, used, and enjoyed my company\u2019s products, a universal truth that will never change. I believe that the customers who purchase our products should gain the utmost benefit and \u201chave enriched lives by the joy and happiness that should always outweigh the price paid\u201d.<br \/>\nThis is BITO R&amp;D\u2019s mission in which we firmly believe!<\/p>\n<p>BITO R&amp;D Co., Ltd.<br \/>\nPresident Jyo Bito<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"divider-wrap\" data-alignment=\"default\"><div style=\"height: 25px;\" class=\"divider\"><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Vision Becomes Reality Vision I\u2019ve been asking myself what is truly important to people.
