I was riding in the pond yesterday and just as the bike started to float the motor quit. No water in the airbox, motor or exhaust. Water must have gotten in the carb or tank as the bike would start and idle for a little while but would stall if I touched the throttle. Drained the carb several times and finally the tank and refilled with fresh gas. After about 10 more minutes of starting and stalling the bike suddenly started revving with the throttle and has been running perfect ever since.
Carb vent is run to the handle bars and before I went into the water I ran the tank vent hose to the bars and plugged the carb drain line.
Does anybody have any ideas as to how the water could have gotten in or areas I should check?
