    Scary thought...

    Life and disability insurance is how you prepare... You can't really prepare other than that. You can either ride or not ride, then again you could cross the street and get hit by a bus. Live life, don't think about it and live each day like it's your last. Be a defensive rider, blocking...

    Kawasaki dealer recommendations?

    Why persist? I'm saying that was not a warranty item that was being worked on. Don't touch it, plain and simple. No, I haven't opened a new chain before. Take your bike there I'm not saying they're amazing and I'm not saying they're bad. I'm just offering my experience as that's the...

    Kawasaki dealer recommendations?

    1) I asked them, why it needs a oil change as I literally did it a day before I brought it in. They said all the oil needs to be drained to do the service. Being new at the time I didn't know, so I brought in my own oil that I wanted them to use. I repeat this recall/service does not require...

    Kawasaki dealer recommendations?

    Yes 3 times, 2 times before there was a recall - once within factory warranty, once outside of warranty but covered by extended warranty and third time under the recall. i would suspect that the first two times, it was the original non-redesigned part. Like some would say, third time is a...

    Kawasaki dealer recommendations?

    They forced me to get an oil change done when I had the leak replaced twice by them. It does not require an oil change! I will agree that the oil needs to be topped up but that's no more than a quart at most... Similarly they charged me for additional service/work that they took upon...

    Kawasaki dealer recommendations?

    Unsure about getting the part and doing it yourself or taking it elsewhere. I would assume the kit can't be more than $50, but I'm really not sure. As it's a FAR they prob wouldn't give it free or (I assume) the wouldn't help you much if they did give it and it kept leaking. Unsure which part...

    Chain Guard - Synthetic Clear

    After years of riding and using Chain Guard brand chain wax (sprayed on) and tired of my chain being yellow due to the color I decided to try the clear version. Original Chain Guard was no fling as it was a spray on wax (paraffin wax). Worked very well but after putting this clear synthetic on...
