Introduction
Current technological developments have progressed very rapidly. Technology is getting more sophisticated over time, especially in the transportation sector. Therefore, transportation companies are now increasingly creative and innovative in creating a product with technology. The development of motorbike engine technology at this time is very fast because every manufacturer is competing to develop their creations, especially in machine technology to increase the company's competitiveness. Marketing plays an important role in the business world because marketing is related to activities to predict or anticipate the needs and desires of consumers and is also related to the flow of products in the form of goods and services from producers to consumers to achieve company goals, namely making a profit. A very heterogeneous market will provide opportunities for companies that can take advantage of it.
Each product will try to fight over the market. But marketers also realize that they will not be able to serve the existing market. There are too many different types of consumers with many needs, so it requires more effort to fight over the market. By dividing a very heterogeneous market into groups or market segments that are more homogeneous, marketers will find it easier to serve consumers. The sophistication of technology makes it easier for market players to imitate the product designs or production processes of their competitors. This causes so many products that are very special or difficult to obtain, now they become commodities that can be easily obtained. Marketing is required to always offer added value to customers in such a way that competitors cannot easily imitate it. The increasingly complex business competition conditions expose consumers to accelerating the purchasing decision-making process and at the same time reducing the risks arising from these decisions. With the development of information technology, society is becoming increasingly critical, including the ability to criticize messages received. The importance of the role of brands in the consumer decisionmaking process makes marketers place the brand as one of the most important company assets.
Currently, competition in the automotive world is getting tougher, especially motorcycle competition. The increase in motorbikes is due to the increasing consumer demand for modes of transportation and daily activities. The Honda and Yamaha brands are automotive companies that dominate the Indonesian market. However, compared to Honda, Yamaha has always lagged in sales every year. Nowadays, many brands are offered by companies with their respective advantages. Several brands competing in the market such as Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki, and TVs. The various brands offered to make consumers have to make several considerations in choosing a brand that suits their needs and desires. Brand attachment can be defined as a psychological variable that shows a lasting and unchanging affective reaction to a brand, expressing a psychological bond with the brand (Lacoeuilhe, 2000: 66). Furthermore, according to Keller (2013: 102) brand attachment can be defined as the level of loyalty that consumers feel towards a brand.
According to Chinomona and Maziriri (2017) brand attachment is influenced by brand trust, brand familiarity, and brand experience. On the practical side, brand trust, brand familiarity, and brand experience have had a strong positive influence on brand attachment. The influence of each of these three factors can stimulate a higher brand attachment to consumers. The Yamaha company was founded in 1887, Torakusu Yamaha founded a company that made organ pianos at that time, the company was called Yamaha Corp Nippon Gakki. Then, Yamaha is famous for its world-renowned musical instrument makers. The logo was created on June 1, 1955. After that, another new company called Yamaha Motor Corp was established, which was separate from Yamaha Corp Nippon Gakki, but remained in one group. The motor that was produced by Yamaha for the first time was a single cylinder 2 stroke motor with 125 ccs which this motorbike mimics the DKW 125 cc. Then Yamaha developed at a rapid pace at that time, 1959 came out of motorsport that was produced by Yamaha for the first time. The motorsport is known as the YDSI motorbike with a 5-speed gearbox. In 1960, Yamaha's production increased 6 times until it could produce 138 thousand motorbikes (www.federaloil.co.id).
Until now, the Yamaha brand has become the choice of consumers from the many motorcycle brands on the market. Consumers trust (trust) in the Yamaha brand. The location of its branches that have spread throughout Indonesia makes it easy for consumers to reach them. Yamaha is a good brand/brand in the eyes of consumers, thus making sales increase. Yamaha spends a lot of money on sponsoring Moto GP to maintain the image that their product or brand is a high-quality and high-performance product (www.motorek.wordpress.com).
Based on the results of research by Chinomona & Maziriri (2017), it is known that brand attachment is significantly influenced by brand experiences. Meanwhile, a higher level of brand trust can be expected to lead to a stronger brand attachment.

Based on the background described, the purpose of this study is to examine the effect of brand trust, brand familiarity, and brand experience on brand attachment on Yamaha brand motorbikes in Kebumen City.

Brand
Creating a strong brand provides many benefits for the company. The American Marketing Association in Kotler & Keller (2013) defines a brand or brand as, "A name, term, sign, symbol, or design, or a combination of them, intended to identify the goods or services of one seller or group of sellers. and to differentiate them from those of competitors ". It can be interpreted that a brand is a name, term, sign, symbol, design, or a combination of all that is intended to identify a product from one seller or a group of sellers and as a differentiator from competing products. According to Aaker (1997), a brand is a distinguishing name and/or symbol (logo, stamp, or packaging) to identify the goods or services of a particular seller or group of sellers, thereby distinguishing them from goods and services produced by consumers. competitors. Keller (2013) states that there are several criteria in selecting brand elements, including:

Memorable
Easy to remember is a necessary condition in building a brand image to achieve a high level of brand awareness. An impressive brand element catches attention and is easy to remember or recognize.

Meaningful
Brand elements are expected to have a good meaning regarding general information about the function or service of the product as well as specific information about the benefits of the brand.

Likable
Consumers will generally look for products that catch their attention.

Transferable
The transferable element is a step in which the brand element can add brand equity to a new product or new market.

Adaptable
The more adaptable and flexible a brand element is, the easier it will be to update it.

Protectable
Marketers must select elements of the brand that can be legally protected and legally register it with the right legal entity and have a legal trademark. Kotler & Keller (2012) argue that brands have several roles, namely: a. Brands make it easy to order and trace a product. b. Brands help to organize inventory and accounting records. c. Trademarks offer legal protection for aspects or uniqueness of their products. d. The brand signifies a certain quality so that satisfied buyers will make repeat purchases. e. The brand becomes a strong suggestion for securing a competitive advantage.

Benefits and Advantages
Brand benefits create a perception and brand advantages are one of the boosters of the company's progress. According to Alma (2011) Brands or brands will provide benefits to several parties: 1. Manufacturer or Seller a. Make it easy for sellers to process orders and reduce problems. b. Provide opportunities for sellers to classify the market into certain segments. c. Assist the seller in classifying the market into certain segments. d. Company image can be fostered by having a good brand. e. Provides defense against fierce price competition. 2. Buyers or consumers a. Can distinguish products without having to examine them carefully. b. Consumers get information about products. c. Increase efficiency.
For companies, the brand acts as an identification tool that helps the process of product management, inventory maintenance, and accounting records. Trademarks also provide legal protection for companies in the form of registered trademarks. Just as the production process is protected by patents or the product design is protected by copyright. Another contribution that a brand makes for the company is that it guarantees a certain level of quality so that consumers who are satisfied with the product's performance at a certain level can easily choose the same brand when the consumer makes a repeat purchase.

Brand Attachment
A simpler definition of brand attachment is a bond that is full of emotions or emotional connection between a person and a brand. Consumers tend to be emotionally attached to several brands, feeling a connection, passion, or affection for them, to a degree that can vary from brand to brand. Brand attachment is a basic characteristic of emotional attachment. Brand attachment reflects an attachment to a brand and is a psychological variable that shows an irreversible affective relationship with a brand and states the psychological closeness of consumers with the brand (Aureliano-Silva, L., 2018). Attachments are emotional and affective bonds that consumers build concerning a particular brand. Customers tend to personify the brands they like and thus build close affiliations with them. Brand attachment is an important construct in describing the strength of the bonds that connect consumers to a brand because it must influence behavior that fosters brand profitability and consumer lifetime value.
Conceptually, brand attachment is similar to ownership attachment when considering a brand as a source of emotions, self-identity, and personal historical values. Brand attachment theory stems from consumer behavior research, where areas of interest are related to brand relationships and loyalty. Brand attachment reflects strong and longlasting psychological and emotional brand relationships that result from feelings of friendship and dependence on the brand. Brand Attachment A simpler dBrand attachment can also be considered as the strength of the bond that connects the brand with oneself. Brand attachment is a construct that reflects the bonds that connect consumers with certain brands and involves positive feelings towards the brand. (Chinomona, Richard & Maziriri, 2017). Meanwhile, Yuan and Lei (2017) show that brand attachment is a relationship-based concept that reflects an emotional bond between a person and a brand. The brand attachment consists of three emotional components: compassion, passion, and connection. Affection is characterized by the emotional items of love, kindness, and peace. Passion is characterized by pleasure and interest.
Brand attachment can be defined as a psychological variable that shows a lasting and unchanging affective reaction to a brand, expressing a psychological bond with the brand (Lacoeuilhe, 2000: 66). According to Keller (2013: 102) brand attachment is the level of loyalty that consumers feel towards the brand. Meanwhile, according to Louis and Lombart (2010: 118), brand attachment is an emotional relationship between consumers and a brand. Lau and Lee (1999: 343) define trust as a person's willingness to depend on other parties with certain risks. Trust also means the belief that someone will find what they want from others, not what they are afraid of (Deutsch in Delgado and Munuera, 2005). Meanwhile, according to Moorman et al., In Chaudhuri and Holbrook, (2002) Brand trust means that consumers are generally willing to rely on the brand's ability to carry out its functions (Moorman et al., In Chaudhuri and Holbrook, 2002). Familiar brand According to Cannon and Carthy (2008: 300) brand familiarity means how well consumers recognize and accept a company's brand. According to Keller (2008: 55) Brand familiarity is a condition in which a brand or product can be known or known well by consumers. Meanwhile, according to Nguyen and Gizaw (2014), brand familiarity is the extent to which information is available about brands that make consumers confident to buy these products, and brand familiarity has an important role in a consumer's purchase interest to be tied to a particular brand.

Brand Experience
According to Brakus et al., (2009: 70) brand experience is defined as the sensation, feeling, cognition, and consumer responses generated by the brand, related to the stimuli caused by the brand design, brand identity, marketing communications, people, and the environment the brand is marketed. Furthermore, brand experience is defined as sensation, feeling, cognition, and behavioral responses generated by brand-related stimuli which are part of the design and brand identity, packaging, communication, and the environment (Evans, 2011: 71). The brand experience begins when consumers start looking for products, make purchase decisions after consuming the product, and other marketing strategies carried out by the brand regarding the products or services they offer.

The Influence of Brand Trust on Brand Attachments
When consumers believe that the company puts the interests of consumers above the interests of the company and the company tries hard to improve customer welfare, customers will become more emotional to tie themselves up because they trust the company's efforts (Park et al., 2006: 208). The results of research conducted by Chinomona and Maziriri (2017), and Furrahmi and Chan (2018) show that brand trust has a positive and significant effect on brand attachment. So, the first hypothesis of this study is: H1: Brand trust has a positive effect on Brand attachment.

The Influence of Brand Familiarity on Brand Attachment
Good familiarity will increase consumers' emotional attachment to the brand so that consumers will become familiar with the brand when they feel that the brand matches their expectations (Heckler et al., 1994). The results of research conducted by Chinomona and Maziriri (2017) and Furrahmi and Chan (2018) state that brand family has a positive and significant effect on brand attachment. The results showed that there was a significant influence of the brand familiarity variable on brand attachment. So, the second hypothesis of this study is: H2: Brand familiarity has a positive effect on Brand attachment.

The Influence of Brand Experience on Brand Attachments.
Naidoo (2011: 30) states that every time a consumer interacts with a brand it results in a positive, negative, or neutral experience. Positive experiences that consumers have with certain brands are a driving factor for consumers to be tied to certain brands (Mkhize, 2010: 63). The results of research conducted by Chinomona and Maziriri (2017) show that there is a positive and significant influence of the brand experience variable on brand attachment. So, the third hypothesis of this study is: Yamaha motorcycles in Kebumen Regency.
