AFTER ANOTHER WASTED TRIP INTO THE KAWASAKI DEALER TODAY, i AM STILL WITHOUT GUARDS OF ANY TYPE :angry:

But then I get onto Sheree at Kawasaki Connection Cessnock & she tells me they are available
There is a bit of a part number chase to do with the tech dudes in sydney on monday, but they apparently are available afterall & they have been supplied before !!!

Seems like the dudes were having a “boy look” so my other half tells me :huh:

Here`s hoping

Did the kx ones not fit, because mine bolted straight up except for that 1 hole

Dunno Hatto, I couldn`t get KX guards anywhere,,,,
They weren`t even interested to tell you the truth, I asked ig I coud get some assistance as it had been a two week problem & all they were worried about was that if they ORDERED SOME IN I WOULD BE STUCK WITH THEM, FIT OR NO FIT :angry: :angry: :angry:

So I got the genuine ones from Cherie at Cessnock at a discounted price

The local Newcastle dealer can get nicked!!! I will now drive to Cessnock for parts if needed & my next bike (if it is green) will come from there as well

yeah that really pisses me off. What i did find is that the kx are made from a different plastic to the oem’s and they haven’t broken as easily. i went through 2 oem sets in 1 year then had the kx ones for 2.5 yrs. As long as you are up and running all is good

cheers Hatto

Cheers Mate,
Now I will source a set of the OEM`s for the next time I bust a guard :dry:

I wanted to get back on the trail ASAP, so I went the genuine,,,
A big pissaround though was not what I expeted, especially from a dealer that I have purchased numerous parts plus other gear before :blink:

Can`t fathom how a dealer can have so much trouble finding a GENUINE part on the Kawasaki database :blink: :blink: :blink:
Even if there is a problem with the system, I would have thought a bit of a better look into it, or even a phone call !!! WOULD HAVE SAVED ME SOME GRIEF & WASTED TIME :angry:
Instead I got the good old phrase “Sorry, it is not available & don`t know what will fit in its place” :angry: :angry: :angry:

NOT ONCE BUT TWICE

Very Poor
