"neutral light won't come on" That will be your problem, not certain about the 220 but the 300 has a complex "lock out" system involving an extra solenoid. If it doesn't think it is in neutral, it won't send power to the starter solenoid. Sending it to a mechanic would have been cheaper than changing all those parts.

Thanks for your help! The local Kawasaki shop charges $90 an hour. I changed all these parts for $71. I know it is still not fixed but try to fix it myself. Thanks again!!

Have you found out what's causing the issue?
