In September 1946, Mr. Honda went to see a friend, Kenzaburo Inukai. When there he noticed a small engine. He knew Mr. Inukai who ran a taxi company and repair work he did when he was running the Hamamatsu branch of Art Shokai. Mr. Inukai had a generator engine designed for a No. 6 wireless radio from the Imperial Army that he had got from an acquaintance. Mr. Honda saw it, and it was this that inspired him. This chance encounter had set in motion the creation known later as Honda Motor Co. First making engines for bikes this grew into the initial motorcycle which was born in1948. In the fifties, Honda was now a big player in the motorcycle market and by 1959 expanded its availability to the world making Honda the biggest motorcycle manufacturer.
