The ones they replace them with now are much thicker than the original ones.
At least the one I bought from Motorcycle Parts, Kawasaki Motorcycle Parts: CYCLE-PARTS.COM are.
Got tire of waiting for the Dealer to get one for me so I ordered me one from Cycleparts and got it much quicker.
Yea....lost my license and inspection sticker the first time and the second time I did not lose anything because I noticed that it was breaking off in time to save it.
Also...The rear fender support(metal tubing up inside the rear fender) broke in two. I discovered it by a rattling noise I heard one day...Looked underneith the rear fender and saw it.
The replacement I bought for it was also much beefier than the original...From cycleparts.
This stuff is replacable under warranty....but I fixed mine myself.....Don't really like to let those guys work on my bike if I don;t have to.
