Looked tricky when I saw someone do it recently?
Is it easy enough to do?

yeah it should b pretty simple to do, all the cars and bikes i have done have just been a case of undoing the cradle bolts, slipping the old pad out, pushing the caliper in put the new shoes on the pads, sitkc them in, bolt them back up then bleed the system,.
then ride easy as yer pads will munch yer disk down as the top layer is rough!
thats it!

Stereo,
If Kawasaki's are the same as most bikes the front of the caliper hold the front of the pads and captures them when lifted up back into position

There easy as stereo the only thing you have to watch is the pin with the 4mm or something hex head has a little rclip inside thecaliper so you dont need to turn the bolt theres no thread there just remove the rclip and pull out the pin. and its about all that holds the pads in the caliper.
if ou can get a sintered rear pad get one the platinum ones are too soft anyways, so same compound front and rear.
if you need to know any more msn me I will be here for a little bit.

forks are eeeeasy! just need the right tools!
ive serviced both conventional and USD forks, the USD's were considerably .. harder to do. but with a service manual in hand you will be right, but for the first time fork servicer .. put aside a day it can tend to take a while when u are kinda feeling your way
