I would first determine what parts you actually need; most of the pieces there don't wear out. Then I would see if Z1E or another reputable dealer has what you need. The feedback for that eBay seller looks pretty awful to me. (see link):

i thought about buying gaskets and o-rings. my carbs were rebuilt before the bike was parked in a basement around 25 years ago. so i could probably get away with that. i have disassembled one of the carbs and have it soaking in pine sol. so far so good, the float bowl looks brand new.

I fell into that trap. Those are K&L kits not Kawasaki by any stretch of the imagination. I was able to ship them back for a full refund fortunately.
