Are these the correct ones to use? I have a 2014 but I assume they are all the same:

Question: What are the dimensions of the crush washer, in inches or millimeters?
Answer: 14X22.3 mm
That looks about right. I have a couple OEMs out in the car but I can't get out to measure them right now.
Any aluminum washer will work as long as it's got a big enough ID to fit over the threads and small enough to fit under the flange of the plug. The washer I got with my aftermarket plug is very small but the hole is big enough for the threads to fit through.

I could not find out the correct ID & OD of the Kawasaki Part# for the crush washer and my wife needed me to buy something so she could get free Amazon shipping so I figured those would work, but I am still not sure so if someone has the exact sizes please let me, and everyone else that changes them, know.

I have some and they are 22 OD x 12 ID. A couple extra mm bigger hole is not going to matter. That will allow you to use the gasket as many times as you want without having it get squashed onto the threads.
I've been using the same gasket for several years. I go with 15 ft lbs on the plug and the gasket never expands but it seals fine, the threads in the drain port don't get worn and the plug never gets loose.
