Just bought a KLX 300!
It's snowing and I was excited and I already dropped the bike and broke the clutch lever. I really want to find the exact same clutch level. Is there somewhere I can buy original parts from?

Idk, but get some bar-end hand guards and no more broken levers.
Probably a good idea. I see myself falling more in the future
It's a dirt bike. I'd drop mine a dozen times or more per ride back when I was doing singletrack. Now I mostly just ride forest access roads, but I still have them. They do a great job protecting your hands too. There are countless times branches have bounced off my bar-ends instead of my hands. One time a car was turning into me when I was next to it, and the bar ends saved my ass. I basically punched the car with the bar ends, which got the driver's attention and she stopped rather than running me over. I would have broke my hand if I didn't have that protection. They're a great investment. I recommend Acerbis.
And make sure to get actual wraparound guards and not just the plastic deflectors.
I have Acerbis on one bike and Enduro Engineering on another. Both good.
I like my Enduro engineering guards more than my Ascerbis. May just be the models I bought, but there's a big difference.
If you’re in the US, RockyMountainATV/MC has always been my go to for the best OEM parts availability and prices for offroad bikes. Not to mention great selection of aftermarket parts as well. KLX should still get some parts support from there, likely sharing parts with the KX line. They might actually ship out of the US, but ive never tried?
My next go to is Motorsport.com, but RMATVMC almost always has the best prices and best shipping for OEM.
RevZilla (US) has decent OEM stuff sometimes.
