I've got a '18 XC300 and the E-start works flawless.

Just picked an 18 up. Can someone with updated leads compare them to mine?

I’m curious why your bike has a lead-acid battery opposedto the Lithium battery that mine came with. Also the “updated” leads people are talking about are down on the starter. Most of the issues people are talking about occurred on the 18’s that were sold last year.

Mine was a dealer demo bike with maybe a quarter to half a tank run through it. Yep not an LI battery for sure...........not sure what happened. I ordered an Earth-x EXT-5 battery for it the other day. Bike is starting fine so will assume it's all good.

When I asked the local dealer here in Mesa, AZ if they had experienced any issues with the starter post upgraded leads, he mentioned that they had switched to a better cold cranking battery (so presumably not a Li battery) on their personal bikes. Maybe they did this with the demo you got so it would crank over better first thing in the morning

From the manufacturer.......... NEW AND IMPROVED! EarthX ETZ series of starter batteries are the most powerful, light weight, compact sized batteries on the market! Designed to replace the stock, small lithium battery that comes with the 2017 or newer dirt bikes from KTM, Husqvarna, Honda, Beta, and Kawasaki with almost TRIPLE the cranking power! This is also a great battery for other dirt bike models where weight and performance matter. It only weighs 1 pound, and has 240 cranking amps!
