Check the cam shaft. The exhaust lob is the weak spot. They will wear down to nothing.
SOURCE: 2005 Polaris 700 sportsman 4x4 gets warm, looses power?
My 2005 700 efi is doing the same thing. So far I have found that the engine and exhaust get so hot that the fuel starts to boil and causes the fuel pump to vapor lock. I taped up the tank with some reflective tape/insulator stuff and now I'm trying to figure out why its running so hot.(The exhaust manifold glows red hot) I've cleaned the radiator and flushed the system. I just need to check the water pump and thermostat. Any other suggestions?
SOURCE: overheating polaris sportsman 700
you probly need a new heat sensor, its located on the bottom right of your rad, i had the same problem with my 700 the fan only worked when it was already over heating, i cut the wires flush at the sensor drilled a hole above the key switch and mounted a toggle switch, no more over heating,

I had this problem on a 05 polaris sportsman 700 carb... I dissasembled the carb. cleaned it all out... It actually was fine. It turned out the torque of the motor broke the hard rubber intake that connects the airbox to the motor... This part is $60 and takes 2 bolts to change! [email protected]
