Anyone have any experience with the XT 225? Particulary interested in any information on electrical issues and/or ignition switch problems.

 

Thanks in advance

Kitty has a 2006 xt225 with almost 16000 miles with no ignition problems. Only problem is sometimes the nuetral lite will not come on, and then you have to hold the clutch in while it warms up. Her's is the dual sport version with electric start and a real charging system.

 

My 2000 xt350 is kick only with an old school magneto and the headlight almost goes out when you stop at a light.

What we have is one that apparently burned while parked in a garage. The examination of the unit is just starting and we are looking for any real time information on electrical issues which may have been a contributing facor.

Once I know what the electrical engineer is looking at specifically, I will pose some additional questions. May also be asking for some photos of specific areas, such as battery compartment, wire routing etc.
