Yamaha started as an Organ and piano manufacturer.
The meme has it backwards … worker should be saying … ‘I guess we produce motorcycles now’
“I guess we are getting history backwards now”
Hence why their logo is 3 tuning forks.
BMW started off making aircraft engines over a hundred years ago when powered aircraft were first being developed … which is why their logo is a circle with four different coloured quarters, it’s the image of a spinning propeller
Just don’t ask them what they were doing between 1933 and 1945

Panasonic also makes bikes and pianos. Samsung does too. I think even Sony has a motorcycle concept so add them to the list.
Samsung also builds ships

Yamaha, Mitsubishi and a few others.
Guess we are making Motorboat engines now
Is that a penis?
