SOICHIRO HONDA
         Honda spent his early childhood helping his father, Gihei, a blacksmith, with his bicycle repair business. At the time his mother, Mika, was a weaver. At 15, without any formal education, Honda left home and headed to Tokyo to look for work. He obtained an apprenticeship at a garage in 1922.He stayed there for six years, working as a car mechanic before returning home to start his own auto repair business in 1928 at the age of 22.
            In 1937 Honda began producing piston rings for small engines which lead to manufacturing small engines to be used in motorcycles, and then in 1948 he started producing complete motorcycles as president of the Honda Motor Company. Honda turned the company into a billion-dollar multinational that produced the best-selling motorcycles in the world.With all this now Honda has made its prominent name in the automobile industry,selling almost all kind of motor vehicles. 
           Through his entire journey Mr. Honda faced a lot of troubles in his way,still he stood up and tried again and again.This is how his small failures turned out to be such a huge success.Even at his advanced age, Soichiro and his wife Sachi both held private pilot's licences. He also enjoyed skiinghang-gliding and ballooning at 77, and he was a highly accomplished artist. He and his partner Fujisawa made a pact never to force their own sons to join the company. His son, Hirotoshi Honda, was the founder and former CEO of Mugen Motorsports, a tuner for Honda vehicles who also created original racing vehicles.Soichiro Honda died on August 5, 1991 of liver failure.
