Thanks. I'll wait and see how the piston part looks. It's a tad expensive here. The dust seal is a good idea. I'm good to go then!

braided stainless brake lines are worth considering as well

Well the shops payment system was broken so the order never went through :pinch: I'm ordering it again now but I'm used to always put in a new bolt when changing oil and was going to add one to my list. it isn't on the parts diagram from Kawasaki so I'm a bit confused. Is it par of the bypass valve?

Yes, that's the oil pressure relief valve. Ed

Is this a daily driver or a project? If the later I'd tear down the calipers before ordering parts. The pistons may be pitted and they are expensive. Also, I'd consider new brake lines mandatory. The old lines are almost surely full of crud and scale which will contaminate the system as soon as you fill it with fresh fluid.

The oil drain plug is in the Breather-cover/Oil-pan diagram.
I can see replacing the gasket each time but not the plug. :)
