Default Sportsman 500HO engine problem????

Hey, I am planning on taking it to the dealership to get it fixed... but i was wondering if anyone here could help me figure out what the problem is in the first place. The engine has started randomly turning off without any warnings or signs. I could be driving through a trail and then have to pull over to turn it back on and then repeat 10-20 minutes later?
thanks in advance.

Could be a something simple as having a key chain on the ignition switch(not recommended) that could be barely turning the switch,killing the engine,all the way up to an electrical break down,water in the stator or pick up coil,etc. A simple manual can save you $$ on checking it out and solving any electrical problems.Spam wordSpam wordSpam word Or a cheap 5 buck manual for later models.http://polaris-atv.brssm.com/2010-Po...ce-Manual.html
