I can say this, a 76 and a 77 CB 550K's chain guard will not fit a 73 750K.  I tried, the mounting holes and the shape are not right.  The 550 guards are plastic and the 73 750's are metal.

I have a 73' 500 and 75' 550 chain guards along with a 73' 750k, 77' 750k and a 77' 750f chain guards and the 550 and 500 guards wont interchange with the 750's not even close.
