Who has KZ1000E (shaft) service manual?

It probably doesn't exist. Local Kawasaki dealer doesn't have it for their mechanics!

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationIt does exist. There's a manual or supplement for every model. Here's one for the KZ1000 Shaft. Ed

Yep...I can verify its existence...I own one.

Please let me know clutch spring length specs. If I have "tired" springs, most likely you do too, unless you replaced them. 15 min replacement time! 8 bolts cover, 6 bolts cluth push plate
I measured 32mm. All friction disks are OK, so springs are most likely reason for minor slipping.
I ordered EBC spring from ebay for $100 shipped.

I've seen them in local libraries too. kz900.com/books/index.html#kz1000 ..............................Mike

Vroom-vroom!

I found a place called repairmanuals.com that has scanned and plastic comb bound copies. I went and found me a 1" binder, some plastic sheet protectors and cut the binding off and stuffed every page into it's own protector. This way I can pull out only the pages I need, handle them with grimy hands and put them back when I'm done.

Pics of my KZ750 manual

There's a 1000 ST manual listed at repairmanual.com. it's fairly cheap too.

How does that help the op? Are you going to sell it to him or what?

Clarification that i have both the 750 & 1000 manuals from the same source, given the same treatment.

Not for sale. I'm not done with mine yet.

Kawasaki doesn't evaluate clutch springs on your model by the length of the spring, but rather, by spring tension...standard being 19.1-22.5 kg. Replace at 17.5 kg. Of course, they use a special tool to measure tension...which few of us have. You are probably safe by replacing. I did note that they say spring length for a stock spring is 22.1 mm. You probably already have HD springs.
