I was waiting for you to say you found a mouse in the air box with part of the candy bar. I found a mouse nest under my TW seat one spring. Did you eventually remove the air filter, and see if it was well oiled? jb

No mouse.
Two did have an issue once. Lil varmint filled the airbox with acorns in just two days sitting. Was absolutely full. Bike wouldn't even cough trying to start it |

This would have been easy to diagnose, sniff your tailpipe for roasted peanuts
Seriously, nice catch !

that happens all the time around here with are sleds, little critters like to move in eat the foam out of air box, move in to exhaust any place you could think of. dryer sheets well placed seems to work plus your machine will smell fresh and clean

I had a mouse fill my Vstroms exhaust full of birdseed when in storage, made for some popcorn and laughs in the spring!
