Front Fender

What fenders will fit on a 1976 KZ900.
Will a fender from later KZ750 bolt to my fork legs or is the mounting hole spacing different for smaller bikes.

Thanks for any help you can give me,

The main thing when selecting a front fender is the tire size it goes over. As long as a fender goes over a wheel of approximately the same size and width, it will most likely work. The bolt hole spacing isn't all that important as you can change it by redrilling since you can't see the bolts or holes they go through. I would say the 750 fender would work fine.
