Default Submerged TRX 250

Today I ran my 250 through a creek and got it Wet (it died half way though the creek). I have been able to get it started, however when I try to press the throttle it will die. What can I do or what did I do?

drain the oil out of it.. new oil filter,, new oil.. clean air box filter..... clean carb! and you should be good! after all that run the bike for like 20 min and then drain the oil back out and put new oil in the bike with another oil filter! thats all if it still dont run you probably got dirt in the engine and scored the piston..

agree that you should change the oil too.
