Busted Kickstarter lever

hello,
 pls, disregard my post above, i got the larger kicker now. it only took alittle research and 3 days ups. $95.
all the sites i went to maybe 15 sites, even 2 in fla. all referred you to the original kawi site, (which you can't buy from,only research and i.d.) or a variation of the same site. they've told me that it's all bigger from 2002 and above, thanks, jdv.

hughes:
Jdv500,

What web site did you buy from and what part number :?:

jdv500:
hughes,
i see that your near me, i'm in northeast ala, we got great woods and endless trails here, do you have a large tank.? i could show you the place. anyway, about the lever, the kawi site rep a talked to assured me that the 2002 to 2004 levers are the meatier levers to have, if you order for your yr bike and it's earlier then these yrs you'll get the thin one back to you instead. ** be careful on bike bandit.com as they show 2  part numbers for the same yrs and they all could not tell me which was which. after you get into the kawisaki.com site and work into the parts diagram section(fake-it) and type in that you have the 2004 model and it'll bring up that page, you'll see the lever there as a complete assembly. they do not sell from that site but refer you to an auth dealer, you can find them on your own as well. any site that has an o.e.m. section will get you to the same exact parts diagram as you were just in, in the kawi.com site, but now you can click on it and add to cart and order it.
oh,!!! many sites use their own in house part numbers, not kawi part numbers, be careful and type in the most current yr model bike,04. this will keep you in the good revised parts. let me see here in my papers what the part number was.......ka13064-1201, you should then see that it cost $95 ..the o.e.m. site that i used was worldofpowersports.com, they don't carry it in-house but they are an authorized kawi parts dealer and hooked me up..so, there you go,,,,,now your hooked-up... see ya, jdv   research is great.

just a note,
after installing the new thick and beefy kicker, remember to use lock-tite on the threads, as mine came loose in the driveway after just a few minutes of idling..jdv

Well two levers in about 2 months  :cry:  At this rate, i'll be needing a whole shipment of levers.  This time I was lucky enough to be at the trailer.   Just wondering if anyone has a website or a telephone number to the cheapest, beefy lever around? Seth
