I have done this to a car before.. same type of thing. All I can say is this. Change the oil, change the oil again, change the oil again, change the oil again, change the oil again. I would go buy a couple gallons of oil, change the engine oil, run it for a couple mins, then do it again. I would do it 4 or 5 times to clear all the water and crap out. Each time you change it let the motor run a little longer. I would keep changing it till the oil that comes out of the crankcase, looks like what you put in after it ran for 10 mins. Then I would change it one more time just to be sure. I would change the filter a couple times in there as well.

Thats Just my $.02, but a couple gallons of oil is a lot less expensive than a new raptor motor.

Remove the oil filter and flush out the motor real good, replace or clean the oil filter if it's metal. The gooey mess that oil and water make when combined usally ends up in the filter.

you were very very lucky ya didnt hydrolock the engine.Next time pull out the plug and crank over until all water is out only a fine mist should be seen.ya could bend rods,crank valves are everything.Oil,thats white is contaminated with water,change it get motor hot change it keep doing this until no water is seen.If machine starts running rough ya might have slightly bent something.Last I think raptor was overhyped and was designed to compete with ds650 which is a dune machine
