Why does my quad keep dying?
It can be very frustrating to go out to your quad and see that it won’t start. The reason why your battery dies is mostly to do from it sitting for too long.

What to do when your Polaris bike dies?
Feel the coil just after the bike dies to see how warm it is. If you find the coil very warm, then I would use some freeze spray, which is available at auto parts stores. Just spray a small amount on the coil, then try to start the bike. If it starts, then problem solved. If it doesn’t start, then it means more troubleshooting.
