I am looking at a bike he says its a 53 k model but it has a Iron head top end!!! Says top end may have been changed.I was under the impression the older Kmodel blocks would NOT accept iron head cylinders and heads. Stampings on left side of case are 53K near fron cylinder and 1965 on rear. Bike looks to be all there and am interested if its either an original K model or if its a 1965 sportster
