2 Kawasaki 750 ST,
Both single carb JT750AE small pin (grey) engines.

I thought I had a good deal picking these clean functional skis up.
1's run OK, the other was scary.
30K rpm (on trailer) lock up....No Spark Plugs Attached !
Stuff a shirt in the carb , or cringe till the fuel switch drys.

Took the bad running ski apart 1st : 1 rear piston ring welded
into the piston land. Slight cylinder scratch to be honed OK.
Cylinders still Junk, 1/3 Packed with salt water sand corrosion
growth and 2 days of scratching never poked a hole.
The port sealing surfaces erroded away as well,
I lubed it up and pinched it back together.

The 2nd running ski I took down as well.
It's OK ....except for the .75 rear and .50 front piston differences.

So I'm hunting a solution to repairing the 1 ski needing jugs.
