I'm experiencing the same kick starting slipping as you when cold. I can't seem to find anyone that sells the 13078-007 ratchet part. Do you have a contact person for all the parts? (26 T gear, ratchet, shaft....etc.)
I once had two springs and still had same problem.
Thanks in advance.

Rocky Mountain has em...some stuff listed as "in stock"...and some listed as "ships in 5-7 business days", which means everything is available. You didn't specify what year, so I just used the 2000 as an example...but I'm pretty sure they're all the same for at least '94 up to '04.
Mines a '95...but I always order parts from the '04 list, cause they're all the same.
scroll down until you see "Kickstarter Mechanism" on the left side.

Very good, I had also tried ordering via www.partszilla.com and they supposably called Kawasaki and was told that the Ratchet (#13078-007) is no longer available. I guess I will just get what I can and if that doesn't work then try grinding/sharpening on the teeth. Thanks for the quick response. R

I'd call your local Kawie dealer, just to be sure the ratchet is available before ordering it....but I think you'll be ok.
