Default RE: Waterproofing?

If you must have fun put your reciever in a balloon and make sure that you tie it closed well. Next put a piece of cheese cloth around your air filter. The cheese cloth has wax in it and will repell water. Make sure that you put some extra oil, grease, teflon based something on your bearings, and go have fun. This DOES NOT MAKE IT WATER PROOF, just a little resistant to it. Its really cool to have fun thru the puddles. Good luck and take a video if you can. There are others that will say not to do this. There are risks involved with running in water and snow if you decide to do it you will have fun, but you might need some new parts.
