What are the differences between the k and f models?  If it is from the 550k1,  would it fit on my 550f2?

500 wheel, the rear sprocket has 34 teeth and the 550 had 37 IIRC. Also the rear brake plate looks to be a 500, they changed design for the 550 and to my eye that still looks to be the old style plate.

BTW the sprocket cover dish seem to have been adapted or changed, it should be all in one piece and completely cover the bearing retainer, that's looks to be off another bike or has been chopped for some reason.

If you ever remove the sprocket mount there is a difference in the damping rubbers between the 550 and the later 550s, the 500 were in 2 parts and the later 550s IIRC went to a one piece design.

I'll take a look at that later today...

As longas it is off a 500 or 550/4 it shoud fit,mtook me several years to notice they were different. Fit wise they interchange between bikes. I think yours needs a bit of work but none the less it does look like it may be the right part. Result.
