We have a Winner! Definitely most unique problem. You do have all the luck!
I've had rats eat my wiring, seat and saddlebags, but none have ever nested in my exhaust.

Cool story!

I had a mouse build a nest in the aircleaner of my '82 RX-7 one winter. It was full of these wild cherry pits it was stocking up for hard times. Lucky I found it before pulling it all into the intake.

I guess I should put a screen over the intake opening as I still worry about it happening again.

Never heard of mice in a working parts of a vehicle! I have had mice eat the inner working of a laser printer here at work. Anything is possible. Imagine if the little thing was in there when you fired it up! HA HA HA! Poor Poor mouse!

Well I'm back at working on the Blast again. No more dog food. The bike still wouldn't start...so I took out the ignition module the dealer gave me and put the old one back in....OMG it started, sounded pretty good. Then I let off the throttle and it proceeded to sputter and die.

Tried to start it again and OMG it started up again right away.....sputters and dies when I let off the throttle. Stays running if I keep the throttle on mid-range.

The bike is in neutral, clutch out. The boot is new, the plug is new, the auto-enrichner is new. Also when we try to adjust the timing turning the module seems to have no effect. Is the ignition module bad? Or could it be something else. I also get lots of backfiring and black smoke puffing out the carb when it dies. I am going to re-clean the carb again for the 100th time tomorrow.

Are you still using the same old gas from last year when you had problems?
