I bought an 04 polaris predator 500 from a buddy,ran good until he flipped it down a hill,battery was hanging on by terminals,carb was hanging,handle bars bent slightly.so i bought it off him cheap cause i knew it ran a day before.Now it turns over but no spark,there is a black wire coming off the frame but i have no idea where it goes,not sure if it has anything to do with the spark,any advice would help.

 

Its right under the carburetor

 

Only way on something like this is to trace the wiring.This 5 buck service manual can help with the wiring diagram and electrical checks.2004 Polaris Predator 500 Service Manual PDF Download

 

Look like it's a frame to engine ground wire that the po disconnected or came loose.Again look at the wiring diagram.
