I have a "75" CB550F. Will a carb rebuild kit for a "75" CB550K work on mine?

Will the parts fit?  Yes.

Are they the right parts.  No

You will only care about the right parts if the rest of your bike is stock, like exhaust and airfilter.

However, all you really need most of the time is the rubber parts and you reuse your old jets, needles airscrew, etc., after a thorough cleaning.
