What did it do when it just died? (sound) How did it die? (what were you doing) What does it do now when you try to start it? (sound)

do you fly through water or something?

huh?

sometimes water will hit certain areas on the wiring harness and your bike wont start untill its dried up, it used to happen to my warrior before i got a new stator.
