Use Filtron plastic foam and make up a shape and glue it together.A million times better than the old felted mesh of the Burgess element.The foam can also be used with open valves to exclude dirt.Even works on the front cylinder of an ohv Duggie.Regards John.

I bought some pit bike filter foam off eBay a while ago and have used it for a few applications. The one I bought has two layers one fine and one coarse, I have had to "trim" the fine filter off the sandwich for one bike as it was too restrictive. The piece I bought was around 12"-14" long by 6"-8" wide so plenty there to mess around with for very little cost.
