Looking for some opinions on where to start on this issue.

I had the bike out in some very wet conditions, nothing where I swamped it or anything but just a lot of puddles and raining at the same time as well.

It ran fine until my return back home, where it started to cut out and eventually quit running.  When I tried to start it again it just cranked and cranked.  Eventually is would idle but as soon as you touched the throttle it died.  I had a friend tow me out and home, and the next day after it dried out it started up again no problem but only for about 5-10 minutes then did the same started to miss and die.  Then I was able to re-start it but only could get it to idle.  It also starts quire hard needs 10-15 seconds of cranking to start after this starts.

I checked the voltage that is fine, there is plenty of fuel in the tank and when it runs it runs normally for the short time that is does.

There's a list of things I can check such as the fuel pump, O2 sensor, ignition.  Just wondering if anyone has seen this before and thoughts on where to start? 

This applies to a 2015 CForce 500 most likely other CForce models would be similar or same.

My Brake pads were completely shot after about 600km, and wanting to replace them with something of a higher quality I asked at the dealer for any suggestions.  They told me I could buy EBC Brakes for a Polaris Sportsman and simply drill the mounting holes with a 1/2 drill bit and they would go on no problem.  These are the 2 parts numbers I have used and aside from modifying the mounting holes they fit perfectly fine.  They don't have the tab in the centre which does cause them to seem to move around more but I've got almost 700km on these pads and not worn out yet.  Absolutely no issues with braking, exactly the same probably better than with the stock pads.  Also they were about $7 cheaper than the OEM ones.

EBC FA159X & FA159R. 

These are for the front pads, I still have lots of Pad on the rear.
