After 20-30 minutes if riding engine starts to bog down to a crawl. If I turn it off and start it up agian it is fine for a couple more minutes then it will do it agian. Changed fuel pump. Didn't help. Longer.you let it sit the longer it will run fine. No lights on dash. Any help I would appreciate it. Thanks

It's an 2011
My son had a similar issue with his RZR. Turned out that the fuel vent line was plugged full of dirt/sand. It's easy to check. If you haven't already done this, open the fuel cap the next time it acts up. If it's the same issue, you'll hear the vacuum release and then it will run fine for a short while until the vacuum builds up again.
Thanks I'll try it!

I was going to suggest oil pressure but it would probably miss fire quite often. I had 0 oil pressure at idle on my 800. Took apart pressure relief valve and no spring. Bought factory spring and it pegged my 150 psi gauge. Went into my spring bin and found one that would be about 10 psi at idle and 40 psi with higher rpms. It would run great and every so often it would drop out a cylinder and then run great for the rest of the day. Totally unpredictable. Tried a strong lifter cleaning solution for my oil. Nothing helped. Putting the spring back in it solved the problem. I'm estimating it ran with out a spring in it for years. currently has 9500 miles and runs great.
Go figure.

Geez, I’m thinking mine is the seatbelt wire or connector. Last week I was riding I seen the seatbelt light flash a few times and it bogged down. But today I’m just barely going in low gear and the Rzr didn’t bog down but felt like it was being held back. Kinda like holding the brake and giving it fuel. No seatbelt light either. So I either have a bad fuel pump, seatbelt connector or something totally different all together.
