It's all to do with the ramp angles just a tad on the aggressive side, is that another valve I hear dropping!

Kawasaki simply ran out. There are more coming and they were coded as cancelled by mistake. Should be fixed in a couple days.

Compare them to the first issue cam probably different approach and departure angles that have been modified, to much high rpm valve damage these cams were never meant for a street bike that doesn't get rebuild every meeting.
If I was you I would look very carefully at other options this is why we pased on these cams for our race bike in the first place impossible loads on valve springs leading to engine failure big time.

And the power gains above 10,000 rpm are very minimal and the power loss below 10,000 is very noticeable.
I wouldnt reccomend the kawi race intake cam to anyone unless you are going to extend the rev limiter and rev it higher and you are ok with loosing low and midrange power.
We didnt profile the cam so I dont know how agressive the ramps are compared to stock.
