Christmas again!
Today I got my new Chrome chain guard from a CB750 Custom.


It fit perfectly. A far cry from the big chunky plastic one the K has.
I did notice one thing, when I let up off the gas, I hear the chain "thunking" the new metal chain guard occasionally. It doesn't do it under load just when I let up on the gas.
I looked at the chain & it looks like it hits side to side, not the top (I pushed the chain up into the top of the chain guard & it won't hit)
So...I am assuming that my chain needs to be adjusted. I currently have about 1.5" play or so. The chain is practically new so I souldn't have any issues.
I'm sure it hit the old chain guard as well but I never heard it because it's made of plastic.
Oh well, time to go play.
