I did lock the forks but they released.
Turns out i had a piece of plastic stuck in there.
I have no idea how it could have possibly got in there but it was in there.
Dang it!!
but turns out i have 3 bolts missing on my shocks!
So one thing turns out to be a blessing because there was only one bolt holding it all together.
Could have been some major damage right there!!
anyone know where to get Kawasaki bolts?
do i just go to the dealership?
thanks for all your help though!
i spent a good hour wiggling, turning, moving my bike around trying to get it to work. Stupid plastic piece!!
