Loss of power

I was out of town for the evening and had left my bike outside and there was a thunderstorm while i was gone. I came in and my bike was lyng on its side and a puddle of oil beneath it. I got the bike back up and the next day i tried to start it and it turned over about 4 times and died. My brother told me it must have "hydraulic lock", and the cylinders are full of oil and fluid. yesterday we disassembled the top half and got all the cylinders clear and replaced all the fluids.I asked if i should change plugs too, but he said that might as well leave the old ones in til it clears up because theyre probably gonna foul anyways. I rode it around tonight until it cleared up, but it doesnt have the power that it had before. it doesnt rev as quickly and seems like it wont rev as high either.sorta like its straining. it doesnt have near the power that it had before. im just wondering if maybe one or two of the plugs may have fouled and its not hitting on all 4 or if something else could be wrong. any help would be HIGHLY appreciated. thanks. Danny
