I got a message on my dash guage that said the front tire sensor battery is low. I looked in the owner's manual for a replacement # for the battery and didn't see it (I did flip through it fast so I may have missed it). Anyway I called a Kawi dealer to see if they had the battery in stock and was told you have to buy a whole new sensor for $177 because the battey is built in and part of the unit.
Is this right?
Thanks.

I think for the very first time a search might have turned up useful, pertinent info. on this new forum! :D
Take a look at: http://zggtr.org/index.php?topic=301.msg3572#msg3572 (http://zggtr.org/index.php?topic=301.msg3572#msg3572)
If your bike is under warranty, Kawasaki will replace faulty tire pressure sensors at no cost. If it is out of warranty, you can replace the batteries yourself if you want to solder a new one in the old one's place, or perhaps Murph can help you out by replacing the batteries for you: http://www.murphskits.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=130&osCsid=dc4d146d1f9beb75914f172b7c6b5c8e (http://www.murphskits.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=130&osCsid=dc4d146d1f9beb75914f172b7c6b5c8e)
There is nothing on Murph's site but he did make an offer on the old forum so I suggest you e-mail him or give him a call about the battery replacement.
