Seeing the popularity of off-road racing, particularly on the west coast of the US, Yamaha attacked the off-road motorcycle market in the late 1960s and ’70s.
Introduced in 1969, the AT1 Enduro was powered by a 123cc two-stroke single, rated at nearly 12 horsepower, mated to a five-speed transmission. It features Autolube automatic oil injection, head and taillights, a cross-braced handlebar, and a chrome luggage rack. Instrumentation includes a 100-mph speedometer and a tachometer with an 8,500-rpm redline.
This 1970 Yamaha AT1 is finished in metallic orange with white pinstriping over silver fenders. The bike was purchased a few years ago and at that time the bike was fully re-commissioned, including a check of fastener tightness, spokes, tire pressures, cables, Mikuni carb clean and adjustment of timing, lights, oil pump, chain. In quite original condition, the 1.9-gallon fuel and 1.3-quart oil tanks are in good condition. Having languished for several years, the bike will need the usual recommissioning before returning to regular road or trail use. Sold on a bill of sale.
