I cleaned mine really good and noticed mud build up just below the pink in picture.
Finally got the crude out but also notice they (Yamaha) had foam stuffed in there. I wonder what's up with that I thought.
Turns out that is the "path" blow by oil will take to go in back portion of air box.
If your foam is rotted away in that little space all the dust and dirt is going right thru and directly into your carb. Thats what the peg is for in picture, to hold the foam in place.
I brought up the air box post earlier but thought this deserved a new post.
You might have a fresh clean filter when all along it's sucking dirt right thru anyway! More then likely it will still be there though.
