Thanks for replying!!   I should have said regulator had hot wire melted.   Going to see if it will start now 

Same deal here ☹️

I have very similar problems— did you get it repaired?

Good luck — mine had hot wire on CDI connection melted 😳

I think I fixed it— will see if it starts tomorrow

I have similar problems 

This ATV has for last 2 years started almost instantly, about 3months ago - it would not start up (turns over great). Few days later it starts and runs fine-  started several times in couple hours I rode it. Tried next morning- would not run! Tried to start several times in next week- no run.  It decided to run after sitting few weeks- ran fine for about 1.5 hours. It sat for couple hours and hasn’t ran since! each time it would not start- I had no spark. It seems to decide when it wants to fire. I have changed plug and checked pick up.

sorry about long story.

thanks in advance for any leads
