Default Sunken Big Bear Recovery

Saturday I Sank my battle ship up to the handle bars. After getting the bear out of the water and cranking it I checked the oil and it looked like Milk Of Magnesia! I have changed the oil 3 time and it looks like oil should now. I cant get a oil filter element until tuesday, and the gas doesn't have water in it. Other than that is there anything else it should check or be concerned with??

You could check the drive axle for water. Just in case. Also you could take a look at the air filter. Maybe clean it and then reapply some oil to it.

maybe a new spark plug, too
Its amazing how bulletproof these big bears are

I drowned mine last year, pulled the plug and cranked it until the water stopped shooting out of the top of the cyl.....put the plug back in and rode another 50+ miles back
