Should I assume you didn't attempt to cross reference them?!

My suggestion would be to do that and contribute back to us.

We can always use another contributor to help us  ;)
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

Look even though they don't cross reference exactly 3867075 vs 3867078 visually the only difference I can see is the size of the reservoir.

Part numbers aside for the moment,  a good thing to check might be the bore in each case as it is a key variable in your stopping power.  It might be in the shop manual for either along with an upper limit for replacing it.
