One the guys that I ride with just blew up his wolverine!! We were out playing in the mud and water when it started cutting out, figuring he sucked up some water, we went back to his house to drain the carb and check the air box. He was reavving it up, to see if it would clear then all of a sudden it made a horrific sound. He quickly shut it off then tried to restart it, NO GO... it acts like there is no compression? He is taking it to the shop this weekend, (good thing its still under warrenty!! 
) any ways I was curious if any one else has had this kind of problem?

We pulled the plug out and there was no water in the motor, We wern't playing in water that was more than 16"-18" deep. He had hydrolocked it before, a couple of months ago but not this time , and yes he changed the oil several times after that to get the water out of it. I myself am kinda curious about the warranty thing to... when the rear axle bent after he rolled the bike (it only rolled over one time and stopped on its wheels) they told him to take flying leap.. and said gee looks like abuse to me, your on your own.. so we will see..
