Unless I'm mistaken, the subject plug is not offered as a replacement part...at least in any US parts fiche. I looked from '88 to '12. An inquiry at a Kawasaki dealer parts department is advisable. This avenue should be explored for availability.

OP will likely need to resort to some sort of sealing adhesive. I'd suggest researching a quality product that will be permanent in nature.

Do your homework, JB Weld, for example, has some new versions out there.
