Unhappy

I bought a left over '07 Honda VFR in '08. After breaking engine in. Put it on a dyno to see how much power it made before I started with the mods. The numbers were LOW. Couldn't figure out why. The bike seems like it ran nice. No flat spots in the power band. I decided to look around. Found a mice nest on top of the air filter. Found 3 dead mice in there too.

At least you found it! Some people would go 50k before finding it. I flagged a guy over in NV in AUG last year. His whole radiator intake opening on his car was covered by a big plastic bag, it was only 107 degrees that day.

Is everyone else's airbox like this that the filter slides in? You don't have to separate the airbox halves?

I've owned 2 boxes and neither was like this

Looks like belly button lint.

Maybe I'm sharing too much again?
