Coffee Beans in the airbox! Is this a thing?! - with pic
Discussion
So servicing a (new to me – VFR800) at the weekend. Have done 110 miles since picking it up, just to really check all is OK and to run the fuel out of the tank. Bike has been with last owner for 11 years (only done around 1k miles during his ownership - garaged) and not moved since covid.
Lifted the airbox cover… What the…??? Have never seen this, how have coffee beans got into the airbox..?
Someone has suggested, it might be to deter rodents, etc, but have never seen or heard of this.
Anyone..?

That's what I want to know too... 
Man since I got this new bike I'm always wanting to stop for a coffee.. no idea why.........
Nope... No smell at all. Nothing out of the ordinary. Happy to report nothing else strange found around the bike either. No signs of anything behind the fairing panels (once they were removed) or under seat. All looks immaculate to me. Just like the owner said, garaged for most of it's life, even the forward headers are 'pitted' free.
