Question Looking for KLE 500 2006 MANUAL

Hi,
I've been looking online for a SERVICE manual to suit a KLE 500. Mine is a 2006 model. I found this site, read a few threads, and found this to be a very common request. I registered straight away. The site looks excellent !!
It seems I am not alone in noticing a few " querks " added by Kawasaki to make riding less than 100% ( about 95% ). i.e clunky transmission esp 1-2, soft front suspension, etc
Any help would be much appreciated
Cheers

Re: manual for KLE 500

Shaun H
Thanks for getting back to me so promtly. I have no problem with the 10Mb file size, if you don't mind sending it. I do have the exploded views of the engine components etc, so you don't have to send that.
My e - mail is skr96771@bigpond.net.au
Thanks again
Karl

Karl,

what I had should be in your inbox. Couldn't locate the user manual.

Cheers,

Hi there.

I have a 06/07 OEM KLE 500 spare parts manual (PDF) if you are interested. It is quite handy. It has all the Kawasaki OEM part no's and diagrams.

Cheers
