OK. I've just verified that bjorn is correct. When you dual class, your XP in the new class is set to ZERO. Furthermore, you lose the excess XP in the old class.

I just ran a little test in BG2 where I created a human fighter with high enough stats to dual to a thief. After dualing to a thief, the XP in the new class was set to 0 and the XP in the old class was set to 64,500 IIRC. Nearly all of the excess XP was lost.

Therefore, my previous statement is correct. The best time (as in "minimum XP wasted") to dual is immediately after leveling up in the first class.
