... I check for critter nests all the time now to the point it's almost a phobia. "Hate little F'ers living in my engine bay" syndrome.

Called my stepson and told him on what happened. He said that they been having problems with critters ever since they moved in.

In 2008, I bought a left over 2007 Honda VFR bike still in the crate from the local dealer. Took the bike out of the crate and put it together. Put fuel in it and it stared right up. Broke the engine in and then put in on the dyno. The numbers were LOW.

Started to check everything on the bike. Raised the fuel tank up, and removed the top of the air filter cover. Found a mice nest that covered over 2/3's of the filter. In removing the nest, I found 3 dead mice. Put a new filter in and redyno. Now the numbers was above avg.
