So today after all the good raining for 3 days I decide to cross this flooded ditch. my freind told me "hey man I dont think you can make that its deep", and of course crazy me says "dont be a whimp BraaP Braaaaap SPOSH" I landed right in the water on my front tire and flipped over the bars, and faceplanted the water and my bike was on its side floating. So I got home and took the airfilter off and drained all the oil(it was milky as hell). So should I be good to go after I run clean oil threw it?? please help

Make sure theres no water in the cylinder,carb,exhaust pipe and your good to go. Dont be surprised if your oil is milky for a few more oil changes,it takes awhile to get all the moisture out.

Run some of that oil flush fluid through it too before you run it again. Might need to give it a good shake before you drain it again.

We were riding on the sand bar of a lake and I look back and seen my son dog-paddling three bobbing tires, lol. He went a little to far from shore on his 200x and found a drop off. I changed the oil 4 times before we took it out of the garage. New filter and plug. For the carb I turned on the gas and opened the bleeder. Then dumped in some gas treatment. Took a few hours and I was concerned as you are, but it's been a couple of months and I can say its fine. Oh, oil the chain, and we re-greased some stuff, but don't think it really needed it.
