What cause my enigne to shut down when I put it in gear

I am supose to buy 2006 honda 350 fourtrax es cheap!!! The problem is I can start the bike and it will idle fine but when I try to put it in gear it shuts down no warning lights come on. how ever when i looked at the bike I notice at first the oil temp sensor wire was broke off right where you plug it in the sensor. So my question is if the sensor is bad or gone could it cause this problem. I also know before the ower tried to fix the bike it only use to run for 15 mins then shut down and he would have to wait for it to cool so could it be as simple as a oil sensor or a bad wire going to it ?

Hello From Louisiana also

I am new to ATV’s having bought one a month ago. I use it for chores around my property on beautiful Lake Bruin located between Vicksburg and Natchez on the Louisiana side of the Mississippi. There is a paucity of information concerning maintenance and repair that I hope to remedy by joining this site.
The nearest dealer is 40 miles away so I need to become familiar with maintenance and repairs and am looking for some help from the old hands.

Superwinch

Hey guys, I have a 2009 Polaris sportsman 400 ho. I installed a 2500 lb superwinch three years ago. Three months ago, my original contractor became inoperable. I replaced it with the superwinch upgrade. This contractor is three times the size. Anyways, I noticed that if I press the in or out switch rep easily for half a second, it stops working. When I rev up the bike, it works again. Could this be the contractor getting too hot because I’m activation the rocker switch with short burts? Would a contractor have thermal protection? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
