Was considering this before the whole "fag" thing, maybe I'm just getting old. Just ordered the quiet baffles for my big shots, was wondering if anyone here has tried them.

I have, they work well.
I have a set for sale, since I sold my FXRS, and the new owner preferred straight pipes.
They won't fit any of my Buells...

So, I sent V&H an email asking for the correct part number, bought them and took the pipes apart when they came. Surprise! they don't fit...diameter is too big.
Frik and Frak, back to the beginning and the hassle of returning parts.
So, Bart..if yours are 1-5/8" diameter and 10-1/2" long...I could use them.

Mine are not, they are for 2" pipes, and are 14" long.

Turns out I have the original big shots, and there are no factory "quiet baffles" so I modified my own. Now at 3K rpm I'm going 74 mph when I used to go only 70.
Sounds better too.

How do exhaust baffles alter your gear ratios?
