Ok, I'm getting to know my '06 Uly and wanted to take the airbox cover off and have a look at the filter. I figured it shouldn't be that bad because the bike only has 5500 miles on it. The manuals says to replace at 20,000 miles, so how bad could it be?     | ||

Looks like the little feller had quite a stash! | ||

I'm guessing that bike didn't get ridden much over the winter  | ||

You better watch out. Now that you have stolen his stash, there will likely be revenge... like chewing the wires or seat. | ||

Gotta admire those little mammals' resourcefulness. Thinking for the future! | ||

Cool looking dingle balls! I see you have dog food in there too. My kid left a bag of dog food in my garage and that must have been a signal for the mice to move in! They shredded everything. I had to use traps and poison and then I finally got rid of the dog food and they stopped coming around. | ||

Uly's run great on kibble! When we bought our house I took the oven apart to do a through cleaning, Under the bottom oven pan/plate was a bunch of kibble. At first I thought the crazy owner before me was baking / warming kibble for the dog, then it dawned on me it was the mices pieces  | ||

I wonder how many times the little booger got a free ride. | ||

Leave a couple of mothballs in there, that'll keep'em away! | ||

I think that will make it run rich.....but I doubt it would throw a code!  | ||
| Wesman |
Mothballs .... ya, now when it rattles and pings you can say it's the mothballs  | ||

A tip in one of the moto mags I get was to remove the battery and put it on a smart charger. Use the space where the battery was for an open box of mothballs. | ||

Recent experience here in the Fungus Forest makes me think that the previous owner may have known he had a rodent issue . . .the little green pellets in the rear of the plate look like "mouse bait" . . .possibly gathered up somewhere else and brought the the Ulyhome. | ||

Hey guys after thinking about it, I've decided I could harness nearly unlimited rodent power by adding a running wheel with a v belt or a chain to the habitrail setup. The belt drive can be connected to an adapter on the engine to provide supplementary power. Plus it all works out because while refueling, I can conveniently drop food pellets down into the air intake mesh at the same time. I think I got a winner here, dibs on patent too, so don't even think about it.  | ||

May the g-force be with you ! Had a bud with a softtail custom that had rodents storing pecans in his straight shot pipes. Peppered the poo out of his truck when fired it up with garage door open - good story that we still laugh about ! | ||

Why not run a belt to a supercharger. Hit them with a little shot of vitamin B when you want some boost. They could rest when you are running easy. | ||

Hey, at least your air filter is doing its job! | ||

I was getting a BMW running for a friend. It was his brother's bike and had been sitting for 6 years in a barn. I pulled the air cleaner and saw the luxury living quarters of one lucky mouse. He didn't even poo in there, it was really set up nice! Better house keeper than I am!! |
