Thanks for the reply. You read my mind and I think you discovered the perfect solution. This is exactly what I was talking about when I refereed to my Deere F525 mower not starting, it's also Kawasaki powered and it does the click, turn the key and try again, click, again, click, again, click, then again and it'll start. This must be a common issue with Kawasaki powered equipment. There are sellers on ebay that sell a kit to fix this issue, which looks like just a relay and some wires.
Would you be so kind to tell me how you hooked the relay up on your Kawasaki to provide full voltage to your starter solenoid? Thanks in advance.
