I was doing some cleaning on the wifes bike this morning and found the choke was froze up..
I remember the wife complainaing about her bike not staying at the same idle, or shutting off sometimes..
I disconnected the cable from the carb where the little plastic cable connector screws on, and nothing but rust.. I cleaned it out with some wd40 and was able to pull out the choke cartridge with the little needle on the bottom of it. the little cir clip that holds the cable on was rusted away.
The cable it self was fine. I lubed the cable anyway..
well i guess it is off to the suck honda store in st augustine for warranty work, that should take about 4 weeks . or order the parts myself..
You might better check ur bikes for the same problem..
her bike has never been near that deep in water, barely over the pegs
