Kawasaki Part Number 99924-1026-03 is what you need, it's the Factory Service Manual that covers your bike (I have one in front of me right now).

The Factory Service Manual is the best, followed by Clymer, and Haynes positively sucks for both bike and car manuals.

Follow Steell's advice, the factory service manual (FSM) beats the others...you can develop patience and watch eBay, used FSM appear all the time for your bike...you should be able to snag a used copy, delivered, for about US$30.00

Don't even hesitate...get the FSM(Bike-Bible).
More detailed info,and the "Proper" specs.
Keep the Clymer on hand though,for when you run out of shit-tickets.(toilet-paper):)
