Because I talked to a guy at a local dealership today and they dnt sell Kawasakis so he dnt kno to much about them but he said he can order the parts. If it's the part he found it only like $15 so that's good I just hope it not hell to change it out

pull your chip out and see if that is the problem it could be caused by that or you could have a bad carb boot I think its to early for that usually they dry up and crack. Also you are snorkled you may have an air leak somewhere that you dont know about double check everything and if your dealer is worth its salt it doesnt matter what you did to your bike mines was heavily modified and never had a problem getting stuff fixed if your dealer is good dont worry about it. Kawi themselfs will never know what has been done they dont go and check they go by what the dealer tells them

Ok I ordered them from another website bc babbits would have takin like 2 weeks and it was crazy about shoping and handling. Ok and about removing the chip. I know wats the problem....I take my bike in places wer u can lose a bike the lift and 29.5 outlaws just helped me break the seal. Everything done to it gave me more power and less top end. And in the mud to much tourque always breaks something. So I kno for a fact now wer it's coming from. And on a scale 1-10 how hard is it to change this?

About a 3. Do this when changing oil because when full, it will pour out when the seal is removed. Jack up the back end, pull the driveline, with a screw gun, just start a sheetmetel screw in the seal body just up from the rubber, then pry out with a screwdriver. Clean case and shaft. NO abrasives!!! Steel wool the shaft if you see a ring on the shaft. Pack silicone grease inside the seal between the guard and wipe, put a little RTV on the outer edge and install with a deep scocket that fits the outer edge. Position leven with case all the way around. Reinstall driveline...finish changing oil and filter.

Sounds pretty easy I will ge on it wen I get the part bc my bike leaks to much oil right now to ride. I took it out ride Monday maybe for an hour and went sit it up and I just checked it and I am alittle above the low line. I dnt wannt mess up more than what I have to right now
