not sure when they came out but tt500f's were the 1st with the factory fitted alloy arm so would have been before 79 at least

The similar ProFab / LOP banana arms (on which the design is based Im guessing) was catalogue listed for late 78 and appeared on the LOP RM125s part way through the 78 season. I dont think any of these arms could be pre 78 legal, Ill leave the question as to whether they are Pre80 legal to someone with better info than me.

Pardon my ignorance but what is pre 80? Who runs this category. It might be the ancestral home for my 78 Husky that isn't really a match for the testosterone fueled evo's
