Hello help needed.

while riding my 21 1000-5 . the rear end broke through the ice. the muffler was under water.. like an idiot I panicked and shut it off.

winched myself out of water, but machine wont start.

I removed the muffler and it had a fair amount of water in it. the sensor in the muffler was wet.
air filter did not go under water. I removed 1 spark plug and it was wet.

i've got it to fire a few times and will run for maybe 5 seconds then bog out and shut off.

planning on changing out both plugs tonight, as well removing the entire airbox to see if any water got in the box under the filter..

any more ideas?

Doesn't sound good. Good luck.

Did the seat go under the water on the passenger's side?

front had some water under it.. not quite to the seat.
The Pioneer's gas tank vent is really low, you may have drawn water into the tank - Hondasxs's point.
