Anyone using Quiet Baffles with their Big Shot Staggereds?

How do you like the sound compared to the baffles that come with the pipes.

My V&H on my new07 WGare a little louder than I thought!

 

I have the quiet baffles. They toned down the decibels slightly. Still has a nice mellow sound and will set off car alarms but not nearly as much as with the original baffles.

 

I have the "quiet" baffles in my V&H slipons, I think whoever called them quiet must be deaf. The quiet baffles are as loud as I expect the standard baffles to be. Also I think whoever called the standard ones baffles must be blind and deaf, I don't see how they could affect the sound or back pressure at all.

 

I agree with Cruzin. A little quieter, a little deeper, but definately HARLEY!!!!!!!!

 

and I agree with Larry. I wear earplugs so they are tolerable.

 

Quiet baffles are not quite so raspy/tinny sounding, a bit lower in tone but still seem pretty loud to me. Once the fiberglass gets 'broken in' (ha ha), they open up and get even louder! Slow process over time but now they really have that harley rap to them.

 

I purchased the V&H Quite Baffles, but the fiberglass is wrapped in tape. Did you remove the tape before installing, or does the tape simply melt away?

I assume it's easier to install with the tape in place, but wouldn't it melt and start smoking? I would hate to park the bike somewhere and see smoke coming out.

 

I have them and love them. Put em in and rode to Vegas and back, broke them in real good. No smoke just a funny smell for the first 100 miles. They also helped with the low end grunt. Once the packing burns off they will be as loud or louder than the std. baffles.

 

My experience exactly.
