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.

Build your own Yamaha VMax

Tue, 15 Jun 2010

For the origami fans out there, Yamaha have a printable Paper Craft version of their VMax motorcycle (or should that be PMax - P for paper obviously) Download each of the five individual PDF pages and get folding. Might want to stock up on printer ink and A4 paper though as it looks like it will be a frustrating model. As it looks fairly impossible and time consuming I'm putting the challenge out for anyone to go out and complete the paper model themself.

2013 Yamaha XT250 Receives Fuel Injection

Thu, 07 Jun 2012

The Yamaha XT250 dual sport is getting a fuel injection system for the 2013 model year, replacing the previous model’s 33mm Teikei carburetor. Apart from fuel injection and new graphics, the only other changes are a new TCI ignition system in place of the 2012 model’s CDI ignition, and a slightly larger gas tank (2.6 gallons versus 2.4 gallons on last year’s model). The 249cc air-cooled SOHC engine and five-speed transmission remains unchanged.
