The Ohlins made in Japan , were strickly for thier Motorcycle and snowmobile division by Yamaha I understand that they purchased Ohlins. I'm under the impression its back in the hands of the Sweds..not entirely certain but heard they had some quality issues. Ive been using ohlins for the last 20yrs on my bikes and sleds and have absolutely nothing negative to say...incredible product and craftsmanship...IMO no other is comparible for the money. With respects to thier automotive division, I'm certain Yamaha had nothing to do with and has always resided in Sweden. Note: don't quote me on all my info...regardless, incredible product !

Cheers
