Default Cylinder Head

Does anybody have any idea what this fits? I got it in a box of stuff on a sale, Harley Davidson part number is 16513-93J front cyl head, there is very little info anywhere about it. I know I'ld sell it for a small fraction of the list price I found!

-93 is too early for vrod. Maybe a VR-1000 head? There was also a military bike HD made back then that used a Rotax motor. Not sure if it was water cooled.

It's for a VR-1000 Worth some money, but you'd have to find the right buyer for it.

Water-Cooled 60 degree, 4 valve, overhead cam V-twin.
