You're trying to get me fired as the HP2 moderator, aren't you!

Thanks for helping out with the draining of the bike. Not so much thanks for directing me to ride over the big rocks

As I knew I was going over, I managed to kill the engine before I went over.

Then we drained the exhaust by picking the bike up, drained the snorkel (about a pint came out!), checked the airbox which was really quite dry, then popped the plugs before turning it over a couple times. Put it all back together - and it fired first time, didn't even stutter

Rode the rest of the day, then checked the oil the following morning which was v creamy! So we did multiple flushes then refilled with fresh oil. Which, judging by the ride home (managed to get 130 miles out of a tank with 20 miles still left on the range indicator), did the trick. So, all is good

hi mav
glad your bike is ok ,the creamy crap is probably from the cold hitting the heat when the bike went into water,condensation . done a good thing to change oil few times .i used to have a lot of condensation problems with a old ktm lc4 that i used to use in the winter rain .got fed up of changing the oil , ,put a dreadful mud flap style thing on the base of the mudguard and the problem almost stopped right away ,so the problem was from the water hitting the hot block .
