Kawi 750sx pump mods....

[michaelart]

Ok, now I am in semi unfamiliar territory......I am trying to decide which pump I am going to use on a 750sx I recently got...One pump appears to be unmodified and the other one is modified (unless an object made an almost perfect journey across the outer limits of the stator veins). In my opinion, the veins were modified (not perfectly, but consistent enough to rule out a rogue object.......) Anyway I am posting pics of the "modification".

Two questions:
1) Which one should I use and why?
2) If I shouldn't use the "modified", how should I classify on ebay?

Thanks for the input......
Michael..

That was modded by a rock. Its toast.

Thanks crab......that's what I was thinking....just wanted to be sure.....strange thing is that the prop didn't appear to be damaged (other than small nickage and the wear ring area didn't appear to suffer any damage.....

Whatever did it, it will probably still work, but not up to par. Sell it on ebay, perhaps someone will buy it for parts or try and weld it up. I need a shaft for one of mine.

I have an extra shaft I believe........I'll check this weekend....

Didn't think before I typed, are you talking about the shaft in the pump itself or the driveshaft?

i have seen much worse work OK. sure they are not the best for performance, but for an "average joe" on maybe a stock ski, it'll run fine.

just besure you are honest in how you post it.

just my opinion.

Can't Impros weld it up to new again? I thought they did that.
