I doubt it.   Why don't you offer it up and see what the obvious differences are?

May be worth looking here  http://www.motogrid.com/pages/parts/viewbybrand/7/honda.aspx to check the part numbers. It is possible that they are the same

Im assuming its a uk k3, bought the frame on fleabay as the other one I have has been butchered to make a chop. I am trying to build a standard looking 550 from this. Paid 37 quid for it. Was going to keep it as a chop but decided standard would be better. Will post picture of it half renovated as a chop before i decided to go the standard route

Returning that to standard is a big job!

Keep us posted with pictures.

Not 100% sure. I think it will but the length, width and chain line will be different. Doesnt look like the swing arm in the chop is altered so that ought to transfer.

Most difficult bits will be headlamp brackets and top yoke/clocks etc.

Most expensive bit will be chrome rear mudguard and side panels

some parts i have but not all are for sale

It wont be minted but will be ok I think building on a budget and spent too much already . I have had it a while and started rebuild as chop will post some pics of unfinished chop rebuild if I can find them. Got some bits from the USA before the pound dollar exchange went tits up. Found some pics
