Here is what I'm using, it works great. I ordered one for user: Pheroux too.

Less than CAD$30 shipped.
Have the same. Less than 10$ with shipment for me ;)

Found this in my old tool bag from my Z750. Don't know why it's there because the Z750 don't have a Single Side Swing Arm. Fit perfectly.

If the Z750 doesn't have an eccentric for drive chain adjustment, like the ZRX does, I'll bet that's the shock pre-load adjuster.

Motorcycling is not, of itself, inherently dangerous. It is, however, extremely unforgiving of inattention, ignorance, incompetence, or stupidity

Yes. My bike is at the dealership getting a new swing arm because the bolts cross threaded the first adjustment
