That's really cool. But if you dump the bike and it ingests water while the motor is spinning at high speed, you'll bend a con rod, bust a piston, and/or crack or break something. Saw the results of an outboard motor that sucked water...

You are confusing me with someone who is looking for an argument.

Didn't we already figure this out? Jet-ski's, right? A more buoyant craft designed to shut off before capsizing?
