My new to me bike....beautiful 1973 Yamaha AT125....have questions about it

I just picked up a Yamaha AT125 off a friend that was going to sell it to a dealership for $200...and I was not about to let that happen.. This thing is beautiful. All of the chrome is awesome, no pitting what so ever. The paint is nearly perfect...it has a few small dings but it is 34 years old so thats to be expected. It runs perfect. There are no noises and the electric start works excellent. The bottom end cases have a few dings but are overall good and they are still polished up nice and shinny. All of the electrical works flawlessly....all lights, blinkers, neutral/oil lamp, etc work perfect. Speedo, tach, and odometer work great. Tires are great, brakes are great, clutch is good. Seat is great and it has an origional accessory rear seat for a passenger. I have a vintage clymer manual for it with an origional owners manual and parts manual. And to top it all off, I have the title for it which is clean. The bike itself has about 5k miles. This bike was WELL taken care of. I have never seen another one in this shape before.


My questions are this:

How much is it worth? I dont need this bike. I dont really have the space for it either. I just bought it because I simply couldnt pass up this deal. So I may sell it.

How reliable are these bikes? Althought I dont need it, it is a sweet bike. The cool factor of it is off the charts. And it seems like it would be a lot of fun for around town riding or bringing it on vacations or to the track as a pit bike or something. So I may keep it to ride.


I will post pics of it as soon as I get them.

theres a crappy picture...will get more asap.

Its has to be worth more than that. My insurance agency values it at $1500, nada says $1100, and other ones I have seen are ranging from $1000-$2500. And some people say no more than $300 since its 34 years old.... There are so many different numbers I dont know what to think.
