04 Sportsman 500 HO problem
I was out riding yesterday and my Sportsman just stopped running. It is getting gas, all power looks good, turns over just fine but won't even think about starting. I replaced the spark plug today just in case, but that did not help. I am new to this ATV, but I would assume that if I remove the spark plug, put the wire on it and ground it to the engine or frame the spark plug will spark. Is this correct? It does not spark. If I am correct I am thinking either the coil or the CDI unit went bad. Any thoughts?

Fortunately I have 2 of these things so I took the plug out of the other one and tested it for spark on the engine, it sparked like a big dog. I then tested the power coming out of the CDI and it is giving juice to the coil. I think that must be it. Lo and behold the frickin coil for this thing is $120.
Hey anybody know any good parts suppliers on the internet?
