I have the same problem with my XT600E. I use it nearly every day to get to work and it starts first pop, every time. Had last week off (due to snow) and left the bike in the garage. Went out yesterday and had a hell of a job starting. Pretty convinced its a fuel supply problem. Fiddled with the carb, checked the plug etc etc then, in the end , grabbed the handlebars and bounced up and down on the forks a few times (made me feel better as well!) and she finally agreed to join the land of the living. Wish she had a kick-start as battery was on last legs.
