yup, that is usually the problem....how much junk do you have on your keychain? take everything off but the key....

Same thing happened to me when I first bought mine. Now I just use the one key and I have a coiled keychain with a snap on one end connected to the handlebar just in case for some reason the key comes out. It's also a good idea to have a key cover which helps prevent dirt and water from getting in the ignition....

More than likely, this is a keychain issue, but if that doesn't fix it, check your ETC. It might be out of adjustment.

pull a little slack out of the throttle cable from the pod and secure with a tie wrap to the handlebar,it was the throttle over ride(ETC) kicking mine out with the hard right hand turn.No key chain on my bike

Thanks for the input everyone, I know it isnt the key cause I had already corrected that problem after I had ridden the quad for the first week. I think it is the throttle cable. I will give that a try. Thanks
