camatv Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 the wire loom is probably one of the places its coming in. but dang you have to pretty much sink one for that much water to stay in there. if the water can get in and get out its not nearly as bad as just sitting in there. i have cleaned then painted rusty flywheels before. and then just made it so that the water can escape from the bike. if your not sinking it in the river it sholdnt get as much water then... the stator and flywheel can handle water and really its best that it just flows back out. the loom is also sticking out some in your pic you can push that into the rubber gromet so its flush with the inside of the case. if it sticks out it might move over and rub on the flywheel and make a bo bo some people around here think these things are boats i swear.. the weird shake the motor had there is deff something going on in there. split that sucker apart so we can see!
