[melenroom]

Hello,

I own own an Kymco Kxr 250 atv in the Netherlands that is the same as the Mongoose 250.
I have a start problem.
Normaly the Atv dont't start, but when i start en the same time putiing the gear to the front he will run.
I have a you tube movie uploaded that you can see the problem.

Well, I am not to familiar with that model but I would bet that the nuetral safety switch is not adjusted correctly. I would look for a switch somewhere along the shift linkage. The switch could be located by the transmission. It will probably be some sort of switch with 2 wires. It's purpose is to prevent starting in gear but allow it to start in nuetral. Just the opposite of what yours is doing. Hope this helps.
