Default Wierd smell after riding

Im smelling a sweet pungent smell after a 6 mile ride. Im thinking its my motor, but how can I tell.

I have a beast motor. Last year I was going cross a plowed field at about 3/4 throttle, and motor got over heated, and shut down.
Local cart shop, who built my cart replaced burnt motor with used beast motor.
Again I traversed into a plowed field, and motor got over heated. but I let it cool and drove out of field in low gear.
now its been three or four months since over heating second motor, the lst three trips when I get home the cart stinks kind of a sweet pungent smell.

On a more helpful note, use a non-contact thermometer to find excessive heat.

I was gonna ask who he had riding with him. Always nice to have somebody, or a dog to blame it on.
