Hi,
Just a question, is it the right hand cylinder of a Kawasaki V-twin? I think it is and that means it is a clogged air filter. Visual examination will not reveal this; can look pretty clean and still be too clogged.
These Kawasaki engines have the air requirements clearly defined by the engineers and for some reason it is the right cylinder that is most susceptible.
Peace,
Clarke
