Pretty sure they are nikasil. My 97 700 was, and the 600 is a very similar engine...

Could just be glazing... you may be able to add new piston/rings and deglaze the cylinders and be good to go. Nik is tough stuff, lots of guys go thousands of miles and tear down and still have the original cross-hatching. You won't know until you tear it down...
Maybe you'll get lucky

i just took manafold off to take a look at piston the mag side looks to have a few scratches and bottom ring looks to be get a a little squished with some metal like heating and pto side looks fine but feels like a bit of carbon on top and yes they are non sleeves plus need new exhaust gaskets they were leaking a bit and someone put the two tab gasket not a 3 tab and some bolts were kinda loose go figure

I would inspect the reed boots for any cracking also.The reed pedals shound never be fliped over you have the chance of it breaking off,the matieral that it is made out of is fatiged ,time for new ,& buy as a set.
