yes it is an fi aircleaner. here is a pic:

you can see it at the lower right, its silvery brass colored bar with a little 
weight about the size of a stack of dimes. i have not checked to see if this 
flap still moves around when the throttle moves, but my engine does act like it 
is getting too much air a times (high rpm, until i rev or let out clutch)
