Squirrel!

Recommended Posts

Winter in Quebec is cold, boring and we received an new 4-5 inches of snow last night. So, to change my mind, I want to share a little something funny (or not). I don't know if something like that already happened to one of you, but it seems that the air filter is a good place for squirrel to hide food for winter...
 
I saw this when removing battery few weeks ago... Hope to see if I will have a new surprise when replacing it this spring!!

That would be a mouse not a squirrel. Anytime your bike doesn't run right or even start, suspect rodent action. Where did he get all the pumpkin seeds?

I dont have rodents near my bike but just in case.....After I removed the snorkel (and threw in a K&N), I stripped the mesh from the stock filter and used it as a barrier screen under the plastic plate.

Crush your enemies. See them driven before you. Hear the lamentations of their women.          Fuss Life.

Down here in phoenix we dknt have that issue, but i still have a small guard over the filter for when im in LA and the squirrels, chipmunks, and mice/rats are abound
This is very similar to what i have

One of the reasons I don't kill the snakes on my property. I like to think of them as little guardians of my house and garage from rodents.

Ha!  I found the exact same thing here in Illinois!  A mouse raided my bird seed and filled my air cleaner.  It must be a hot spot for rodents. I plug up my exhaust in the winter, but I think I'll put some traps under the bike too!

I do accidentally hit them with the lawn mower once in a while.  Next time I'll throw it on the grill.
