Sanyang Motors (SYM), Taiwan’s first motorcycle manufacturer, initially started life as a bicycle lights company in 1954.

However, in 1962 SYM joined forces with Honda Motor Japan and began producing 50cc, 150cc and 160cc motorcycles. The relationship between the two grew from there and by 1994 SYM had produced more than five million motorcycles and in the following year was awarded Outstanding Industrial Automation Manufacturer award.

Modern day SYM

In 2003 all SYM motorcycles and scooters under 125cc were fitted with the brand’s “Engine of life’ slogan, and featured ceramic coated cylinders and came with a lifetime warranty.

Taiwan then the world

In 2006 the company began to export its motorcycles, making SYM not only a household name in the Taiwanese scooter market but a presence in markets around the world as well.
