Guys,
New to the site and apologize if I’m not posting this on correct page. I just bought a used 07′ 700 and everything test drove just fine. Took it to the mtns for hunting and battery died on me. Went into town and bought a new one thinking that the original battery needed replacement. Put a new one in and ran it all day but when I turned unit off and came back to ride 5 mins later it would not start. Just clicked while trying to turn over with electric start. Got a jump from someone and started up, but check engine light and EPS stayed on. Road for another 10 mins and shut off, same issue occurred. Seems like it is not charging battery back up when in use? Is this an alternator issue or something else? And is the EPS drawing that much power out of battery to make a brand new battery go down so quickly?

Any feedback is much appreciated as I am new to ATV’s.
Thanks
