Johnk:

1) New sparkplug

2) Test the coil and the condenser (which your KZ may not have - might be just the coil) with a multimeter (there should be instructions on how to do this in your manual; if not, it's easy to find instructions online)

3) If the plug is new, the coil and condenser check out, try removing the sparkplug lead from the coil wire, and holding it away from the engine like you would with the plug, and see if you get an arc. If you do, you need to replace the plug lead; if you don't, it's time for a new wire.
