I have a 2011 103" Street Glide that has Rinehart 4" slip-ons.

My Dyno guy said that the Rineharts are too 'free flowing', which causes loss of low end torque.

I was told to use Big City QQ baffles with the existing Rinehart baffles.

This allegedly will quiet down the Rineharts, while restoring low end torque.

Any truth to this?

Thanks

Now it's the QQ's alone & I'm happy.
