Sunk my ATV

I recently bought a 2009 Kawasaki Prairie 360. I was riding the other day and sunk it. It flooded the engine and I was able to get it started with in 10 minutes. I checked the oil and of course it was milkly white. I changed the oil several times and I can still see it is sligtly white. Is there a better way to get the water out of it or do I need to keep up with the oil changes until it is all out?

Thanks for any help.

did you change the oil filter as well?
if not then you'll still have water trapped there.

if so, make sure to drain and refill it until there is absolutely no water in the crankcase at all.

try kicking it over with the switch off to get the water off the clutches and moving parts so it'll drain out better.  
Keep it RUBBER SIDE DOWN!!
