At least we know things are starting to happen re letters sent out. Hmmm i wonder by the time they sort out a letter for me if kawasaki australia will have any reg/rec's left ?

I bought mine second hand.....i wonder if Kawasaki will refund me the $700 i spent getting the bastard fixed?

I'd be hitting up kawasaki australia for a refund. Have you got a receipt ?

Not sure if the reciept is still around, but i got the work done by Sydney City Motorcycles so i reckon they'll have it on record.....and they're an authorised dealer.
Will have a captain cook when i get home.

I'm in with a shot....

As i'm the 2nd owner i won't receive a letter so i've sent kawasaki australia a request to send out a letter. Now it is just a waiting game. My work mate has a 2010 ZX10R(bought new) & hasn't received a letter yet.

Hi workmate

Yeah got my letter today and booked it in at Pro Kawasaki at Slacks Creek

They dude that i spoke to said they've got a few rectifiers in stock (for now) so get in quick. Also should take them about 1.5hrs (i guess they get paid by the hour so might as well take their time)

Got an email today from Kawasaki Australia with recall letter as a pdf attachment to print out & take to dealer. Rang Crazy Dogs Kawasaki to order a reg/rec so hope to have it fitted by end of the week.
