Kawasaki's Dirty Little Secret

BUYER BEWARE: 1700 motors have transmission output shaft failures.

This requires the entire motor to be cracked open (bad design).

Kawasaki has not upgraded the output shaft (failure can happen again).

Kawasaki does not have remanufactered motors available (repair shop will take months to fix problem).

Output shaft failure will leave you stranded and potentially kill you if driving in highly congested areas. (Goverment recall need to be issued)

Kawasaki and it's "deep pockets" needs to get this failure resolved, and take care of their customeds who have suffered financial loss.

This is real, again, BUYER BEWARE.
