Thank you Kaptain Kid! . This 1975 one looks clean and straight,( iust noticed, no spring) but wondering if the 1975 750F sidestand is the same length and bolt as 1978 750 F.. anyone know? It looks correct with that little horn that sticks out.

And it looks unbent where the bolt goes through. It looks in really nice shape.

All you need to do is look up the part number then cross reference it  ;)
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

From info gathered on the CMS site, it says it will work with the 1975 and 1978, what I didn't understand is how you figured it was a 550 part just from the ebay post? No part number is given there.Will it work? I can't figure it out. I'm kinda old and brain is getting tired I guess. I've ordered wrong parts before.Thanks for the help

On the 77/78 side stand mount is moved back and up o  the frame.
 If 75 looks the same, it will fit.
 On k bikes it's part way along the lower frame rail..not mounted on the corner of the frame.
