So I found some floods , riding through slowly , it was over the front wheel height deep , blasting through , it was huge , over my head and couldn’t see sod all 😂😂 took the seat off and air box lid , was happy to see it was bone dry in there 👍🏻

Pics, or it didn't happen😜

As long as you can keep moving a bike will go through some pretty deep stuff.

Your connecting rods will let you know if the water was too deep 🤣

Glad he was able to safely self extricate himself.  Where'd the DRZ end up? The next county downstream?

It was not the depth but the current that wiped him out.

The airbox is right below the seat so that's a good baseline, though I believe that if you keep up some speed the front of the bike should create a bow wave that lets you go through something a bit deeper.
