Default Sportsman 500 starts but won't stay running

I have a 07 Sportsman 500EFI, it will start in N but as soon as I put it in high the quad shuts off, and when I finally get it to go in high, as soon as I stop it shuts off. Any idea's on what the problem could be???

I would agree with TLC try to throttle adjustment first.
