"think i can do it?"
"I dont know mannnn.... its pretty deep lookin"
"screw it, i'm in"


so thats was the reasoning behind trying to drive through almost waist high water. My bike would get going and unless i was flooring it, it would just bog out, i made it through but did i destroy my bike in the process??? its been a few weeks and it seems to be running fine... just wondering what your 2 cents are.....

 

On a hard ride like that, I pulled the carb, plugand airbox for cleaning.

 

Did you change the oil?

 

hahaha, and lubed the chain deej

 

If it's running fine, I would just do all of the above, and try to avoid being in that situation again.

 

As long as the bike was running when you went thru the water, you're probably ok. If it stopped, I would definitely check the oil and drain it. Ever heard the saying "oil and water don't mix?" They don't.

 

changed the oil and cleaned the air box out..... havnt touched my plugs yet, put it on the list.... thanks peace

 

Sounds like you've taken the requisite precautions. Your bike should be pretty much good to go.

 

there is a snorkel mod in the klx section, do a search. maybe that will help in the future
