What the ministry says is wrong
プラグキャップの材質が不適切なため、低速走行時などプラグキャップ周辺が高温となる場合で、かつ、プラグキャップ周辺に水分が付着すると、シリンダヘッドに電流がリークする場合がある。そのため、スロットルを開いても点火プラグが失火してエンジンの回転が不安定になり、最悪の場合、エンジンが停止して始動不能となるおそれがある。What is to be done about it
全車両、プラグキャップを対策品と交換する。The two passages above are quoted in Japanese because that is the language the ministry published them in. This site keeps the wording a register had when it was read, and does not translate a safety notice.

Reading this against the source
This page is what MLIT published in the recall notices it publishes, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /japan, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Japanese recalls on a Kawasaki: 90 in the register, and 396 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2014.
