What kind of bumper is that? I like it.

Thanks it home made.

I really like the tough country bumper but I don't like the area in front of the radiator being blocked but it looks like yours is opened up. Great job.

I’ve seen others stall out in water and start back up just fine.
I guess I assumed the starter wouldn’t have enough strength to bend a rod with a hydro locked cylinder.

I had an old ford van once that had a leaky head gasket.(I didn't realize) It sat for several days and I wanted to drive it and when I tried to start it, it wouldn't crank. I thought the battery was weak so I bought a new one. Turned out the batter was weak and with the new battery I was able to crank the engine with one cylinder full of antifreeze bending the rod. I digress. However, if the Honda cranked easily I doubt there is any valve of rod issues. If it labored cranking, there could be something going on .

Agree with Bayouousbeer. Make sure you check and replace the vent lines in addition to all the other great suggestions on this post. I bet you won't go near the creek again !!!

That is incredible. Just shows how tough Talons are buy why take the risk. Just my thoughts.

Looks like that dude should have bought one of those personal submarines instead of a Talon if he wanted to explore ponds with scuba gear on.. WTF is the point or the fun in what he's doing? I don't get it.....

It won't be long until that kid has that Talon destroyed and then it'll be repo'd. Some unsuspecting guy looking for a bargain will buy it. I feel sorry for him already.

I thought it was just me that didn't get it because I'm an old man! Now I feel better if you younger men think it's nuts too.

I'm not exactly younger, (45) I'm just immature for my age. 🤣

Its an expensive hobby just aftermarket parts make it expensive and I get it and I'm old. My buddy in Texas said all he had to ride in was a creek bed with nothing buy big rocks and mud. Fortunately I have thousands of miles of forest and desert to ride in.

So I did the exact same thing.... I've got the motor running but now I'm having issues with it dying when I put it in gear, or when I get it in gear and i start ridding it won't shift. Any feedback would be great.
