This genuine OEM part is engineered for a wide range of Kawasaki side-by-side (SxS) and all-terrain vehicles (ATV) built from 2015 to the current model year. Please verify your series matches below:

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Is it necessary to replace the balance shaft bearings and matching drive gears when installing a new shaft?
A: Yes, we highly recommend installing brand new factory bearings and matching timing gears to guarantee smooth engagement, minimize gear lash, and prevent premature internal wear.

Q: What happens if an engine balance shaft is installed out of sync or improperly timed with the crankshaft?
A: If the timing marks are misaligned by even a single tooth, it will cause violent engine vibrations across all RPM ranges, potentially causing severe structural damage to the crankcase housings.
