I know Keefer put out an updated map for the 25 but you can't make the ignition adjustments on the 24 because you're limited to +1. Is flashing the 24 ecu to the 25 parameters an option?

I know there are certain bolts that have copper washers on them but this specific bolt isn’t supposed to have one. Heard back today and the Kawasaki rep is authorizing this as the fix even though they’ve acknowledged the kawi bond sealant is what’s leaking.

We’re...

Did you figure out your leak? My bike has been at the shop for two weeks so far. They addressed the leaking crank bolt per kawasakis direction trying to remove it and reseal it without pulling the motor and cracking the case. Bike still leaked. After some back and forth Kawasaki told them to add a tracer material into the...

2024 kx450x with 3.5hrs on it. Have an oil leak I couldn’t pinpoint. Took it back to the dealer who found it is a lower crank case bolt leaking and they’re telling me the only way to get the bolt out is to pull the whole motor. They want to try to silicone the bolt back in to stop the...
