[QUOTE="racer157, post: 308130, member: 4130"] The biggest problem with standing water is it can get past seals in suspension areas such as the rear linkage. That is why dirt bike riders tear down such linkage once or twice a year to make sure water hasn't compromised the lubricant. In the case of your short encounter I would not worry. If you note a change in the running of the engine however I would check the air box to see if you got water in it. You can simply blow off the filter with an air compressor or reverse you vacuum cleaner and blow it dry if you find water there. make sure you dry out the air box too. Well done captain and good luck with your next voyage. [/QUOTE]
