rear brake caliper for 78 cb750F

This listing states that is for a 75 76 and 77. Doesn't mention if it is for a k or f. Will this fit my 78 750F?

75 or? 76, think 76. Has a plastic reservoir.
 Got a couple cores of those Master cylinders to sell.
 No K model 750 had a rear disc.

I think that is all '75-76 stuff( I am not sure about the caliper)  The master cylinder is not right for the 77/78 but it looks like it will fit and funtion, although I have not personally done this.  77/78 should have a remote plastic reservoir.  Great price on that stuff, as 750f rear brake stuff prices are out of sight these days.
If it works good, it looks good...

Well I pulled the trigger on it. I googled the part number 43500-392-672 and from what I can tell it looks like it fits the SOHC F models and some DOHC F models. I only need the caliper but the master cylinder looks like it is in good condition. If it fits, i'll use it as it looks better than what it son there now.

I've seen them cheaper.  75f has plastic reservoir.  If you just need calipers, I do have a rear disc calipers in the bins, not sure not sure what bikes though as I hardly ever look at them

This is a 76 cylinder on a 77F. Straightforward bolt-on, although you will be left with the tab on the frame from where the remote one was located.
