Kawasaki speced resistor caps and copper wires. You don't "need" them per say, but it's generally advises to either run resistor wire and non resistor caps, or visa versa.

If you have electronic ignition with hall effect sensors, the EMI might cause erratic firing. It won't hurt to run resistor caps with copper (non resistor) wire, just don't run res caps and resistor wire together.

Or resistor plugs with resistor caps or wires. One resistor out of the three is enough.

Not if your spark plugs are resistor (R) type. If they are not, then probably yes. :blink:
