I bought it on ebay not knowing which model, I think it was an F model brace but as you can see it fits my 78 K model forks fine.  8)
I know there web site is confusing when choosing a 750 honda model.

The k6 and earlier have shorter lower legs, the braces wont fit.
You might consider k7/k8 complete forks, and caliper mounts as an upgrade (fork tubes will not interchange)

Telefix makes a brace for the early short sliders.
