Bought it yet Bill?

Not even if i won the lottery  the handsomeness of it aside im not sure it would fit a TM 250 as they are solid between the frame , this has a spacer 

Anyway Davey boy i no longer own any TM 250s (a few parts left ) after owing 3 of them and trying to covince myself that i could make them turn (aftersomone had lifted them off the stand for me  ) i gave up and bought KXs of the same era 

Thats it  i think that arm will fit the 74,75,76 KX 250

Is it something like PDQ or T&M engineering that made those arms?

I need to know what the overseas debt is first  before i can commit  Marcs already got one for his 75 KX 

Daughter #2 is off to the UK to join daughter #1 via a week in the big apple so the racing budget has been trimmed

Looks a lot like a Boyd and Stellings I saw for a CZ,Firko???

Yep it's a later version of a Boyd and Stellings swingarm, made after Larry Boyd got out of the bike business. A few different firms continued the line such as A&A and US Sport. This design was the first commercially available aftermarket alloy swingarm...circa 1969.
If all of that fugly gusseting was removed you'd have a trick and nice looking swingarm. It's apparent that they've gusseted it to allow for the extra loads of forward mounting......you wouldn't need it on a stock layout TM250. I haven't got the gussetting on my 350 Maico B&S swingarm and it's still straight after being there for over ten years. Ditto my Boyd and Stellings TM400. It's the gusseting that's ugly on this swingarm, not the swingarm itself. With a little bit of grinder work and a clean up you'd have a trick bit of motocross history on your TM. The only thing I don't like is the price .
