Default 05 Sportsman 500, engine died, wont crank, wont pull start

I have had my carb off before, don't believe there is any ETC.
I rode 'bout 20 miles off-road yesterday morning, then maybe another 2 at home. My son rode it about 15 min and it just stopped.
It has ALWAYS turned over very easily, and fired right up. Now it turns over VERY slowly, thump..thump..thump, with a whirring sound. Maybe clutch?
I hope to find out in a few days.
