The K2 was curvey
The K3 was pointy

That said you gett the odd 03 plate K2 as a late Registration.

No.But there are some late registered curvys.The K2-3-4 thing refers to the actual model not when it first got road registered.

You may be able to fit the K2 carbs on a K3 motor,but I could be wrong.

As has already been said, it might have been a curvy with an '03 reg. I've seen a 53 reg curvy. The manufacturing date doesn't change and some folk confuse the issue by taking the date of registration as model designation.
