Default 07' spotsman stalls on a sharp turn?????

I have an 07' 500 sportsman EFI,when i make sharp turns at medium or low idle,she stalls out,not all the time though!!!Any ideas out there why?
My other question is the rear suspension,the small rubber bushings on the torsion bar that link to the suspension...ive went through 2 sets already,and i dont ride er hard!!I only have 200miles on her so far!!!

The stalling maybe the tps sensor or it maybe that the motor is not broke in yet. What do the bushings look like?Are they the ones on the a arms or the shaft bushings? Any chance factory warranty would still be good?

Thanx saber,ill look into that.The bushings are the small little rubber ones on the control arms,there very soft rubber,to soft i guess!!!!Im just wonderin how vital a roll they play,should i replace them when they split,which is every few rides!!!

If there splitting I think you might have overtightened the bushing.Talk to the dealer and see if you can get the torque spec on the arm and give that a try.If that doesn't work see if a stronger bushing is available or a warranty.

When the unit shuts down is the dash blank? Have a good look at your key especially the key tag on the key. I have had this happen to me in the past and it took me a bit to figger out. On a sharp turn the key tag would jam against the gas cap and push the key to the off position. Then you would do a restart and the unit would start with no problem. Hope this helps
