Rats
Hey Everyone, Well I had parked my 2013 Spyder RT in a little shed about a week, went to ride and it would not start, so I figured it was in the start button and handle bars , like the last time, had it in shop for that a couple years ago for that, so I loaded it up on my trailor, and took it to Mountain Motorsports in Conyers Ga, they called me the next day, and told me I had a Rodent problem, and said the Spyder Tech could fix it , a new wireing harness was going to be 2,500.00 by itself, so I said go ahead to save some Money, Mountain Motorsports saved me a lot of Money, and I wanted to give a Shout out to riders in and around Ga, their tech is wonderful.

Sorry to hear about your Rat problem. My house is next to an old 500acre citrus grove that is slowly getting developed. For years we had Mice and Rat problems and a ton of gopher snakes, hawks and owls to help out. I had a mouse or rat chew through my TPS sensor in my Ford SVT and decided to try the below after many failures. I refuse to use chemicals like Orkin etc. The last 5-6 years i have the below in my house, my garage where i have my Ford SVT that i rarely drive and have never seen a turd one. Great stuff and doesn't stink.

Moth balls are a great deterrent also. Placed in plastic bags with holes punched in and hang around the bike. No moths, rats, or other critters.

I've had the same problem. They got the wires to the fuel injection. On my ST1300 they also did it on my Corvette. I do not know why they go after the fuel injection wires only in my case. We put out a lot of Decon and mouse traps with peanut butter on it

If your shed or garage has electricity or you can run an extension there, those ultrasonic plug-in pest repellers they sell at Home Depot worked for me. I had mice and even a squirrel trying to move into my detached 12x16 shed that's my garage. I also left a helmet in there and birds had built a nest inside it. Been about 10 years now and no problems at all. Safe for pets.
