What decides which kit fits
Which manufacturer publishes your machine at all. On Kawasaki the usual answer is reversed.
Displacement is the variable buyers reach for first and it is almost never the one that settles it. The table below carries the rear-suspension value and the sprocket pair the catalogue records for each row, because those are the fields that separate two applications with the same name on the same machine.
If all you have is the name on the machine
Kawasaki puts the engineering designation and the marketing name on the same machine, and the catalogue is the one make that also puts the rear axle type in the row title. A title match is literal, so the wrong name returns nothing, and an empty result reads exactly like a machine nobody publishes for. Settle that before you read the table rather than after — KVF, KLF, Brute Force, Prairie takes this make’s names apart one at a time.
Published applications
Every row below is generated from the application catalogue at build time. Nothing in it is transcribed, which means it cannot drift against the source the way a hand-copied table does — and it also means a row can disappear when the catalogue changes.

Kimpex publishes no per-application condition data at all: every Commander WS4 record in this catalogue has an empty remarks field. The absence of a WS4 entry below means nobody has published a condition for it — not that none exists. Camso is the only manufacturer here that publishes these flags, so this page is necessarily a Camso view of the catalogue.
The rows with conditions on them
A condition is the manufacturer saying the install is not simply bolt-on. Camso publishes the flag and its legend definition; it does not publish what the condition means on the bench for a given machine. We do not guess at it — where we have had a flagged machine on a lift, the entry is in Field Notes, and where we have not, the flag stands on its own.
Note that every condition on a machine’s rows is shown together in the table above. Some machines carry more than one, and a buyer who learns about a required lift kit without also learning the same rows are flagged irreversible has been told half the story.
If you are ordering for one of these
The fitment question — which exact kit, adapter and hardware your year and trim takes — is resolved against the live catalogue rather than against this page. That is a real distinction: a live fitment check reflects current stock and this page does not.
Two things shorten that conversation and both can be settled with the machine in front of you: the rear-suspension type, which is the field the catalogue splits rows on, and the wheel bolt pattern, which takes a tape measure and two diagonals — measuring your own bolt pattern is what to record and what to send.
Applications derived from the published application catalogue, read 2026-09-26. This page states no price: the dealer's catalogue is the only place a current one exists. Where a figure here disagrees with the dealer's own machine page, theirs is computed live and is the one to trust.
