Honda Pioneer 500 - FULLY SUNK

BUT, believe it or not it fired right up after sitting for about 5 minutes and idled for 10 minutes then it cut off, thinking the fuel system is clogged now. Somehow, no water got in the engine. Not running yet, but does fire with starter fluid, gonna work on it 2moro, will keep you updated.

Running again

After he pops up looks like there was a little liquid courage that floated by.

Seeing that is "educational" on several levels, not the least of which is consideration when buying a used vehicle!

This type of deep water riding can be very dangerous. You can here in his breath that he was scared. Hopefully it will teach us all how the buoyancy of the tires can overturn it quickly.

Hey Honda sxs,

Do you know the guy in this video by chance? Other than that video, just because of the danger factor, I get a kick out of his videos.

 

[Hondasxs]

No. I do not know him. He is not that far from me though. Been thinking of contacting him for a ride as I really want more seat time in a 500.
I know he is fairly experienced and knew the risk.

But your right. Very dangerous

So here is a public safety warning.
Never wear your seat belt if you plan to ride in deep water.... NEVER!
