Its just an outerwear pretty much .. it just slips over your filter itself

Its a lot better than an AFTER FILTER! That would be picking junk out of your Carburator!!!!
Its panty hose like fine mesh fabric that goes around/over your air filter thus the moniker of PRE filter.
DUH! SILLY!

heh ya im not sure what it is. it may be the wrong air filter im not sure... its not a pre filter from what iv gather info as. it says power filter i think on it. its a red foam cylinder but is open on both ends kind of like a sweat band shape and then a grey the same shape but is foam wraped in something hard. i dunno i sound really dumb. did the 05 scrammys get a air box change from 04? my stock air filter looks just like a k.n type style and it already has a mesh "pre-filter". the foam think w-b sent me with my pipe is in no way a air filter for my quad. and if it is im missing something....
