Hopefully it is just disengaged from the clutch lifter. It still means pulling the case. While you are there you might as well clean your oil strainer and check your clutch pack...

If you don't damage the case gasket you can use that again, you are going to need the mechanical and oil seals for the water pump. Here is a site you can get most anything you need... http://www.cheapcycleparts.com/model_years/2033-kawasaki-2001-klr650-kl650-a15/assemblies/39719

No need to open the case.  To reinstall the clutcharm simply slide it back in with the arm facing to the rear.  With the arm near flush with the case rotate it clockwise aproximately 45 degrees where it should engage the clutch.  Attach the cable then adjust the tension.

 Not  the arm that hooks to the wire the shaft that pulls the clutch apart  when you engage the clutch I think is called the clutch shaft

There are a few pics showing how it looks installed.

And a full blow by blow of pulling the right side cover if you need to do that.
