Submerged bike

[vazza]

Yo fellas

I got overwhelmed by the ferocious rivers at the gutbuster and got swollowed up. The river consumed both my bike and myself.(bike went completely under water)

Obviously we managed to get it going again, but is there anything I should be doing to ensure that it doesnt rust inside the motor etc? I got no ideas!

Any help will be much appreciated yo

Flush the engine out with kerosen best to do it 3 or 4 times turning motor over by hand then a couple oil flushes running the motor

speaking from experience got caught out last centry on 42nd traverse :crazy:

There is an american product called Sea Foam, not sure if available here, but have seen it recomended for drowned engines in the states.

when i drowned the husky i gave it an oil change in the car park, went and did a few more laps then gave it another at home and no worries.

Put it on a bonfire - no rust will set in then. LOL

i had alittle water still in my carb and oil was f...ed and the bike was only under maybe 20 seconds

[honda_power]

it was a 2 stroke though... was under less than that. All we did was tip it on its rear wheel to empty out through air filter and layed it over with gas off to drain carb... i cant see it getting into the gearbox
