Cam chain replacement is a bit complex for a beginner. I don't recommend it. However, I would suggest the best way is to have a service manual at hand. Go to this site and you can download a free PDF service manual.www.carlsalter.com/motorcycle-manuals.asp

The 2005 manual (4th from the bottom), is 11MB. You can go with the '05 manual as the service proceedure is the same as the 1998. The 2002 manual is 80 MB (scanned differently).

Go to the site below where you can see a parts diagram for your specific bike. You will select the actual brand, year, model, etc., once you go to the site. Part numbers and prices are also shown. You can order parts from this site. In the event no price is shown on a particular part and/or the notation "Not Available" is in the description, the part is not in stock. www.babbittsonline.com/pages/parts/viewbybrandand/parts.aspx

Can I get a “very helpful” rating on this answer?

On a 2000 kawasaki ninja 500r (ex500d7) how do I align camshafts, crankshaft, and timing chain?

You will need a maintenance manual for this full proceedure or visit the site www.ex-500.com and read articles on this. It is too complicated to explain without pictures and in this small space. Basically it involves removing the cam chain tensioner, setting the camshafts and crankshaft on the appropriate marks. Reset the cam chain tensioner and reinstall.

Valve adjusting

You need to take the #1 plug out and make sure the piston is at top dead center. Then make sure that the alignment mark on the timing rotor is pointing at the mark on the engine casing. You will want the cams positioned so that the heels of the lobes are down toward the cam followers. The lobes themselves will kind of point up and away from the cylinder head. Also there should be marks on the cams they need to be level with the top of the cylinder head. You will measure 4 valves on 1 of the cylinders and 2 valves each on 2 others. Then rotate 1 full turn and measure the other four. In any case make sure the heel is down towards the follower and the crankshaft timing mark on the timing rotor is lined up with the mark on the engine case..

How do you set the timing on a kawasaki ninja 1996 zx6r

Ignition timing not normally settable, valve timing align TDC in timing hole, with cam lobes for number one cylnder facing away from lifters, a small spot or arrow on cam sprockets will align with rocker cover gasket surface, turn over by hand one full revolution and rechecked before attempting to start.
