Kawasaki Clean Air System
The Kawasaki Clean Air System
(KCA) is a secondary air suction system
that helps the exhaust gases to
burn more completely. When the spent
fuel charge is released into the exhaust
system, it is still hot enough to
burn. The KCA System allows extra
air into the exhaust system so that the
