Will these be the cages from the jet ski with kx500 reeds swapped onto them, or true VF2 for the KX500 direct from MT?

cmotodad:
Well, I was messing with a Jet Ski motor this morning. It is a 750 with a reed valve. After reading the post about a jet ski reed fitting the KX5, I decided to pull one out and see if it fit. Yes it does. Not sure about anything except the bolt spacing and fitting into the case.

I have done the same thing with the jetski reeds. I have a dead Kawasaki 750 motor in my garage currently

I think any small pin Kawasaki 750 ski motor has the same reeds

RoostDaddy:
decoded= 800/750 (carbon-tech HT)

KX250 manifold (rubber boot) is shorter (around'94) putting your carb in closer to the cylinder.

hope this solves some of your search time

RoostDaddy:
anyone remember the rubberized reed cage Kawrider was messing with?  not sure what it was out of, but I remember chatting with him quite a while ago before things went down hill.
