Basically what it says in the title... I have a 96 xp and it starts easily when cold. After riding a while the Bendix won't engage but I can hear the starter spinning. When it's had 45 minutes to an hour to cool, it will start right up.
The battery is brand new and started it fine even before I topped it off after installing it.
The symptoms are the same with the old and new battery.
Also have a 97 spx which kind of does the same thing, but usually it starts after a few tries.
Most searches I read prior to posting indicated the battery was bad, but that doesn't appear to be the problem. It kinda has me stumped and I'd like to get advise before I start throwing any more parts at them...
