I didnt know until after i tried to start it and wouldnt start one day. So here i am now, where do i go from here. I am pretty good with a wrench just need to know where to start. Bike doesnt run now. Can i easily check if motor is junk by doing a compression text? Any help will be great thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help will be great thanks Start easy and work up, junk the fuel in the tank, also remove the carb and flush that through as well. Basically anywhere the water laden fuel may have traveled needs clearing out. Be persistant water can be quite stubbon in some of the deeper area's of the carb. It certanly wont have done the motor, unless you got A LOT of water actually in the cyl and it hydraulic'd. Thats normally through the filter when traveling through water just a little too deep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
