Most likely your Rectifier has gone bad that is like the alternator to your Polaris. In other words the rectifier is what charges the battery and keeps it charged up. You should check it next.

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?

I hope you got this problem fixed, just happened to my predator, it was indeed the voltage regulator. I picked up a service manual that includes part numbers and installation procedures from www.promanuals.net for 15 bucks.

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,

...maybe use hair dryer to heat area near carb/efi unit.
