My lawn tractor with a Kawasaki engine had the same problem. I found that the linkage for the gas throttle had a lot of dirt on it and would not let the throttle close completely. So when I shut off the warm engine, gas leaked into the cylinder. It would take a lot of cranking to start. When it did start, the exhaust put out black smoke.

Testimonial: "its easy to start but wont idle right till you drive it then idles fine and everything till you shut it off."

    Remove the spark plug when it will not start and see if it is wet with gas.

Engine cuts out when put into reverse mostly when its just started. Run 10-15 min. & will go into reverse. Today start it & goes into reverse perfect. Why?

Sounds like a carb issue - especially since it works fine once warmed up. When was the last time you took off the carb and cleaned it?

If you've eliminated fuel as a source of your trouble, the only thing left is electrical. Coil could be breaking down after warm up is one common cause. Since you just had the bike at a shop for the same issue, you should take it back.

2005 Polaris Ranger shuts down when hot

Could be the coil pack going bad or fuel pump. Find the coil pack and spray water on the outside of it. Not a lot just a stream to keep it cool. It should be on top. Here is a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=woE4OIhCvAs

Yea.. a couple years on spark plugs is great... REPLACE them.. this could be a number of things.. this type of issue is hard to diagnose online.. I would get the carbs cleaned and set by a competent professional. Its probably time to replace the air filter..they ARE the life of your engine.. Do these items, replay with a post to me.

If it turns over fast it is not the battery or charging system. If it turns over fast but does not like to start when motor is warm it is probably running rich. If it ran good before and the carb has not been messed with i would check the air filter. It needs to be nice and clean.
