         B-I-N-G-O and Bingo was his name! I found that a rag I kept under the saddle had been sucked onto the filter thus blocking the air flow. A user error in other words. 
        

 I didn't know that the filter was situated right under the saddle, on my previous DS bike it was under the fuel tank (V-strom). I will not be storing anything under the saddle from now on...and by admitting this mistake I hope to serve as a warning to others! ;D Thanks for your kind help!
