OH...MY... GOD!!!  That Terra-Flex is a BEAUTIFUL TIRE!!!

I assume those do great in Soft-Terrain... but what about the mixed-terrain kind of riding found is SoCal desert?

I ask this question because the IRC M5B I recently put on is phenomenal in the soft stuff... but once you get onto harder stuff with the loose top covering... they're very out of their element... and it's easy to slide the rear out.

I was curious if those Terra-Flex's did better in the harder terrains than the M5B does.

I have a stock swingarm that was (incorrectly) listed on eBay as an '86.  It is NOT for an '86 (I believe for an '87 and on).
I would let it go for what I paid for it (about $40).  Please do some research to see if it would fit your bike (I'll do some also this evening), and we'll talk.

Thanks.

supermotofan1:
It appears to be for an '87 KX500-C1.  Part number 33001-1276.

upon further inspection, it appears to me that the part number above was only listed for the '87 model.

If you think it would work for you, we'll proceed with pictures, etc.
