Yamaha’s board of directors has voted in transfer all shares of its Canadian subsidiary to its American subsidiary, a move which would give Yamaha Motor U.S.A. responsibility over the entire North American market.
The proposed transfer, set to begin in December, will make Yamaha Motor Canada a subsidiary of its American counterpart. According to Yamaha, the transfer will create a more streamlined management structure for its North American operations.
The last time we checked up on James Stewart, he wasn’t having a good year.
First, there was the season-ending injury in the second round of the 2010 AMA Supercross campaign, an ill-advised comeback at the Unadilla National, and then a much-panned open letter after getting left off Team USA for the Motocross of Nations. In all, Stewart took part in just three races in 2010.
So what has he been up to? Thanks to a new video from Yamaha Motor Corp. U.S.A., we know the answer. Let’s hope Stewart has a better 2011, starting with the AMA Supercross season opener Jan. 8 in Anaheim, Calif.
