Love the NOS but no luck at Daytona... My bike also broke...
I left camp rode about 1/2 mile to corner. I pulled in the clutch to stop and it came in all the way and bike keeped going. Rode back to camp and went to sleep. Thursday morning at 7:00 AM I had it all pulled apart. The clutch housing had cracked and released the lower bearing the arm slip off the clutch pushrod. I went all over Daytona and all Over Orlando looking for the housing. Shops told me I could not Modify the housing to work because it would void the warranty on it. Nobody had the part. So I ran the whole day Thursday reaching nothing but dead ends. Finally After the whole day of running(and missing Hooters) thought how else can I do this. I went to the Kawasaki tent at the speedway. I met a guy named Dan and told him nobody has time to touch this bike to busy, and nobody has the parts, and Kawasaki wont cover it under warranty if I modify it to work the rest of the week. So basically Kawasaki has my hands tied. He hooked me up with Steve. Between the two of the they found the parts in California, shipped them to the speedway and handed them to me at no charge in less than 24 hours. Hows that for customer support???? So the guys at Kawi gave me the parts without checking to see if I was even under warranty. Took my word. GREAT GUYS AT KAWASAKI..............
