I have a 2025 Ridge HVAC, jerky acceleration when cold. Are there any fixes?
 
Georgetown KY dealership says no problem, I can't find any recalls or fixes. Does anyone have any suggestions to fix? I only have 150 miles on it. When it is cold it will almost throw your head into back window. I down to thinking I will have to trade (not a Kawasaki)
 
Aftermarket Assassins Clutch kit. It will fix the problem. If you are not concerned with top end, put the max amount of weights in the arm the arm will hold. You will lose a little top end, but your RPM's will lower and it will be very smooth on take off.

there is a slight help from factory but not a total fix that is done free, i called Kawasaki home office and they told to make appointment at dealer and have them run vin # and they could put on puter and reprogram, helped sum.
 
I did all of that, still sucked........then I put in an aftermarket assassins clutch kit, with the max amount of weights in the arm........PROBLEM SOLVED. It will decrease RPM's and top end will suffer a little, but if that is no issue for you, spend the money and get the kit. It worked for me and it will work for you also
