today i went riding wiyh my trailboss, i went through some muddy water upto the floor boards and my bike stalled, then i was ripping around in a large mud puddle and it died on me again, several times i rode through the muck and it bogged down and stalled is this normal for the trailboss, are these bikes not designed to sustain wet mucky conditions, is there anything i can do to prevent this, how come other bikes dont have this problem, do they have some kind of special seal that my bike doesnt. what exactly gets wet and causes this problem.

 

I had my 2000 in plenty of muddy water well over the floorboards. Haven't had any problems with stalling. Check your overflow tube for the gas tank. If it has mud clogging the end it will cause problems like you're having. If you take off the gas cap when it starts to bog, that usually is a sign the tube is clogged. Have fun gettin' muddy!

 

Check the vent hoses on the carb as well. If they hang down too low it will cause bogging and stalling.
