A few weeks ago I noticed a rattle noise at where my headers come down to connect to a pipe that brings both pipes into one for my Yoshi exhaust. I took them off and they are rusty (surface rust) but not to the point where they are losing there shape or strength. So I thought, why not put on the old pipes to see how I like it and see if the rattle goes away. I grabbed the old pipes and the have all sorts of shit in them from f$&#*@ mice.

So i guess i am looking for a few pointers here.
1. why do you think it is rattling?
2. How do I get that mice sheit out of my old muffs?
3. This bike has been jetted for the Yoshi exhaust(4-1) will it run bad once I transform it back to stock pipes? It currently runs lean (heavy gas smell has been notice by riders behind me).

Thanks for reading.
