Most Garmin GPS units released in or after 2005 can use the Garmin POI Loader to load custom points-of-interest databases. (Click on the link to download this Windows application, and for details on which Garmin units are supported.)
The following Zip file contains GPX files with POI data for all Yamaha motorcycle dealers in the United States and Canada:

yamaha-gpx-july2007.zip
https://tcfjr.goption.com/poi/yamaha-gpx-july2007.zip
Extract one or both of the GPX files into an empty folder. Run the Garmin POI Loader, and select the folder with the GPX file(s). These files contain no proximity or speed data, so Express Mode works well. See the Garmin POI Loader site for complete details on using the POI Loader.
The following are PDF files containing details for all Yamaha motorcycle dealers in the US and Canada in a handy, printable format:

If you find any errors in the data, please send me a PM or e-mail.
The POI files contain details on each dealer including name, address, and local phone number (in Zumo direct-dial format). The data is extracted from Yamaha's U.S. and Canadian web-based dealer locater sites, and is current as of the date of this posting. Latitude and longitude data is provided by Yamaha for U.S. dealer locations; Geocoder.ca is used to determine the latitude and longitude for Canadian dealers. Note that a small number of Canadian dealers have names ending with (Z). This indicates that Geocoder.ca did not recognize the street address of the dealer; the latitude and longitude are based on the postal code only.
Updated files will be posted on October 1, 2007.
NOTE: This post was edited on July 2, 2007 with updated POI data files, and to add the PDF versions of the dealer list.
