dead raptor/loose wire?

I was having a nice little ride last weekend when my Raptor suddenly stalled. I tried to start it and when I pushed the starter button - NOTHING! I took the seat off and checked the battery cables, good. Got back on and it started right up. About 1/4 mile later it did the same thing.
To make a long story short - I figured out that when I turn my handlebars to the right, the engine dies. I checked all the wires and don't see any that are worn/shorted. It is not the reverse or p-brake switch because it does not limit RPMs, it completely dies. Any ideas? Please? I am getting very frustrated.

Check all the connections of your wires. My brother in laws 400ex had a problem like that. Except it just happened over winter. Ran great before putting it away for the year then at the beginning of the next season it wouldnt start. We checked everything battery, worn wires or that appeared to be. Eventually we tested all the wires from the battery and finally found one of the connections of wires, the plastic connector metal pins broke off in the connection visibly everything looked fine. Pulled the connector apart and found it was broke inside. Another thing do you have electrical power when it dies?
