Of mice and Falcos

[Syltiz]

On my usual morning inspection of Betsy (my Falco) when I'm not riding, I was surprised by a mouse playing in some leaves by the front tyre. After rushing to get to work, Im now concerned that the little punk may be up to no good... like eating wires and making a nest in my bike. My bike lives outside at the moment under a roof and under an oxford cover.

Has anyone had or heard of mice taking a liking to Falcos? Im contemplating calling off some afternoon meetings and getting back there to check the situation out.

The only mouse I saw was there, there on the stair, right there. A little mouse with clogs on

Well Its Italian innit and I know italian mice like wiring, cos I had to rewire our old Jag 10 years ago, after they'd chewed about half the wiring up

Seems all the "Happy" people are already on the new site.
Like anybody running a Falco on race cans would be able to hear a mouse with clogs on

You might have found the solution, Howard. Don't catch the little b*gger, scare it to death with some open pipes!

heard of them making there home in the airbox before.
cure is to get one of the later Falco`s, ..............they have a cat in the exhaust

I saw a photo just the other day (in Bike magazine I think) of a mouse nest in a VFR airbox, loads of nuts and the like, he'd got as good store going. I reckon bit of heat and a bit of toffee and it would have made a good mobile snickers bar

Oooh, that would make a mess

There's just one problem with that Phil, the Cat's in the first bit of the standard can, and most of our lot ditched them ages ago, so will have to stick to scarin' em off with the noise! or use the other options
