Default Kill Switch for 2011 Sportsman 850 XP EPS

Does anyone know where I can purchase a kill switch for a 2011 Sportsman 850 XP EPS? As you know it is EFI.

There's usually a kill switch on the left handle area. It's probably a slide that will shot off the quad if pushed either to the left or right. Center is the on position. Just going from memory here as I doubt Polaris has got rid of it.

I think he is just after a tethered switch, like myself. If that is the case, this is the best one i have found, and it has amazing reviews.

@cyberhedz.. that is correct.. looking for a tethered switch.. I'm trying to rigged up to run cross country, but have had trouble finding a switch that will work with the EFI set up. I will take a look at you link. Thanks

According to the link... they do not carry one for my year and model.. I called Rath Racing today and they do not carry or make one either.. Which is kind of odd since Daryl races the same bike..

dont worry about having one for your bike specifically, the Pro armor is the ****, specifying a vehicle just means that they have a custom harness for it, you can still cut and splice the kill switch in. Plenty of guys on here can help with how to wire it in, its only two wires. I'm planning on installing the Pro armor on my 850 here in a few weeks.

I'm not sure, I had my bike at the dealer today for issues told in another post, but they didn't mention it. I have to grease the bike tomorrow so I'll check then and let you know.
