Good To Know

Q: Can this gasket be reused if the reed cage is removed? A: A gasket that has already been compressed should be replaced, since reused gaskets often leak air into the intake. A fresh one is the safe choice every time the cage comes off.

Q: Is this an original Kawasaki part? A: No, it is an aftermarket replacement gasket that cross-references OEM part 11009-3787. Confirm the number against your machine's parts diagram before ordering.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
