Hey Gregg,
That picture was almost exactly how my bike's filter looked like the last time I replaced the filter.. (one yr ago/
ish)... I couldn't believe it...Yes folks Gregg is correct here, always protect your bike during the storage season...Since seeing that, it totally turned me into a believer, that mice do indeed get into your air filter and make a home for them selves..
I always (now) place moth balls around, and in bike during the storage season.... This season I placed mice traps under bike (I know some of you will "cringe" when I mentioned that), but it's my bike or them, this yr. it's "them! [I just went out yesterday, and replaced the bait, on the traps]
But for any of you animal's rights folks out there, relax,
please nothing yet, has been trapped...soooooooooooooooooo far.....
Ronnie
