71 Yamaha AT1 125CC Enduro
I need to thin the herd a little so we can get both vehicles in the garage for the winter so I am selling a 71 Yamaha AT1 125 Enduro.  I got the bike in exchange for some welding work and it is just taking up garage space.

The Good:
Starts right up runs good.  I rebuilt the carb new jets and floats, idles fine.
Fenders are dent free
Oil injection system works fine.
No oil leaks
Good compression
Zero rust in tank.
Straight forks, some surface rust of tubes
Excellent chrome on wheels no surface rust or pitting
Working electric start
Tach and speedometer work fine.
Nice chrome luggage rack
Matching engine and frame numbers (AT1-152XXX)
Electrical system seems fine, battery charges lights work fine.
Dent free exhaust

The Bad:
Missing key, bypassed ignition with toggle switch
Rear sprocket and chain are worn and should be replaced
Lens on one of the rear directional lights is busted
Front tire is dry-rotted.
Missing heat shield from exhaust
Rear shocks are rusty.

The Ugly:
Seat looks like a collection of duct tape, needs new seat cover

Overall the bike is a good basis for restoration or a knock around bike for a beginner

Price: $400.
Shipping: None, pickup only
Trades: Would consider Penton parts. Ideally a dent free Hi-Point aluminum tank for a 72 Jack Piner or a NOS Hi-Point tank bag. Or, what other Penton stuff you may have collecting dust.
Other: For an additional $85 I can throw in a set of brand new Cheng-Shin 3.50-18 trials tires that would fit the bike.   I have a couple of pictures if anyone is interested.
