I would follow the fuel line all the way check the filter it should be inline and check the pump as well i would say its one of them two.
When you say new carb kit what exactly do you mean as this problem sounds more like a fuel problem rather than electrical although I would bypass the engine kill switch just to be sure and also the side stand cut out switch, have you cleaned out the pilot jets and air bleed pipes (do not poke anything into the holes just blow them out).
Does the vehicle tickover ok and only cut out when riden?
also check the fuel tap on the tank, if it has a prime position leave it on that setting and see if the problem persists
There is an important takeaway here... if you add up all the parts and labor value of the "repairs" this guy did, it is a bunch, probably enough to buy a brand new model that will provide years of trouble and cost free use. Beyond that, have a competent expert do the work on your expensive toys; that will save time and money... say nothing of bruised knuckles and angst. One more thing, if any of you have an unreliable boat or bike motor, stay close to the trailer or your house, respectively.
