Others are:

- The vertical hand-grabs around the cab door are of different shapes

- The modular appearing a/c units in the roof. On the Bom's they leave a small gap between it and the rest of the roof; looking like it could be lifted out at any moment. The Kawasaki's, on the other hand seem to be flush with the rest of the roof with no clearance; looks like it's solid, though I doubt this is the case.
- As you eluded to with the windows, the doors are the same way; the window frames have excellent quality welds - smooth and flush. Whereas the Bom's have the frame in two pieces with a big snap-ring with a diagonal seam.
- I think the cabs are different too.
