Yamaha Other description

I’ve listed this 125 Yamaha AT1 as a 1973 although the title shows it as a 1974. According to the serial number it is a 1973. The serial number is AT1185109. The serial numbers on the engine and frame are the same so it is the original engine.

The odometer shows 9005 miles but the title shows exempt for mileage.

I bought this several years ago to do a full restore. However, times change and I’ve decided to do other projects. The reason I bought it was because it runs and it is almost all there and all original. The front turn signals are missing but that’s about it.

As stated above, the bike does run. It will start with 1 or 2 kicks. The electric start DOES NOT work. Pushing the start button does nothing. May be a simple wiring issue. I have not trouble shot it.

The bike is in pretty much original condition. It does not look like any restoration has been attempted. The inside of the fuel tank is in good shape. Only some minor surface rust. The original external paint is not bad either.

If you are looking for one to do a quick minimal clean up on to have as a rider this would be an excellent base line. It runs and you can ride it now.

Yamalube Motor Oil Video is Educational, British, and Brainwashing

Tue, 16 Jun 2009

Yamaha Motor Europe have just posted a new video up on Youtube about their Yamalube motor oil and why you should use it on your Yamaha products.  They are pretty damn convincing or very good at brainwashing! The video is pretty educational, explaining how motorcycle engines and car engines are very different, what a motorcycle engine really needs, and why Yamalube is very well suited for the job. Various graphs, charts, shots of scientists making oil, and the accented British narrator have further convinced me that I need to get Yamalube and perhaps even be adding it into my morning bowl of cereal.
