Definitely made by Murray. I see a BMA/6 sticker on the seat tube which I believe makes it from 1971 or later. Not a collector piece, but a nice bike for $20!

M = Murray
4 = 1974
6541 = model number
x7 = BF Goodrich
745469 = sequential build number.

I hae what appears to be the exact same bike (same pink/salmon color!). I bought for $15 at my old fart's park in arizona. Had it now for about 12 years. Have you identified it enough to find parts or parts availability/source? Specifically I am wanting to replace the fork bearings and races and, probably, the crank bearings/races also.
