An 83 750-Twin is probably the K1 Ltd-Belt. That search is only showing clutch covers for the 750-4 models.

The 83 K1 uses the same gasket as the earlier 750-Twin models, so you might be able to use an earlier cover. steell probably knows for sure, either way.

Try searching eebbaayy for KZ750 clutch cover, then see if any are listed for your bike.
There are a number of them for the earlier Twins. The 83 is kinda fancier looking.

I would try an earlier clutch cover. You could pm steel to see if one of those will work. Or bountyhunter might know. Those two KZRiders probably know more about the 750-Twins than most.

Here's one you could use for comparison.
