The radiator fluid or you drove the quad into too deep water?

If it's the CVT it shopuld be the same as the KQ. Take the 2 bolts out of the skid plate near the right foot peg and pry it down enough to get to the bolt underneath, Remove that bolt and let it drain. If you have a winch you could stand it up and take the boot off the exhaust side of the CVT and let it drain that way as well.

The vinsons do not need to have the skid plate removed for the CVT, just losen the 10mm bolt underneath, near the foot brake.

Nahh...Bailing wire could scratch the wiffle valves then you will need a can of compression just to get it started

You also run the risk of seriously damaging a muffler bearing...

Also if you are gonna be in the water a lot you might want to get a set of high performance cross-drilled brake lines so water won't stay in the system.

Also make sure to wrap the power seat module in some "high heat aluminium waterproof self sealing biodegradable latex tape" they have it at home depot but it is expensive, ask for it by name !!

The most imortant thing here is that you risk ruining the flux capacitor.

The flux capacitor was on the 05, its now based around the Continuum Transfunctioner. What is that you may ask.. mystery is exceeded only by its power.. Good luck.

But, good thinking on the flux capacitor.. That would have let them go back in time and rethink the quad sinking decision.
