No or weak spark when hot
I have a 2004 sportsman 700 non efi that will run and start great when cold but let run or ride for about 5 min just enough to let the fan come on and it dyes. I thought it was a fuel problem but after it did this twice i checked for spark and there is little to no spark. I think this could be a coil problem but my dealer thought on the phone that it was not. Please help.

Call the motorcycle repair shops in your area, they may be able to test it for you. Another option is a can of Component Cooler P/N 64-2341 from Radioshack.
Run it till it stops, then spray both sides of the CDI, wait a bit and try restarting the quad. If it fires, the CDI is bad, if not look elsewhere.
Speaking of elsewhere, did you try a new spark plug?. They do wear out and short out.

How's the battery?. Popo's need a strong battery to run. If its the stator, try Ricky Stator for replacement. Ricky Stator: Manufacture of ATV & dirt bike stators, electrical componets, lighting systems, and suspension products.
