Default Who has Samson Rip Saws

My used 05 Fatboy came with a set of Samson Big Guns Rip Saws.

They have non removeable baffles. The sound is ok especially at idle. What I don't like is the high pitch crackling sound.

What can I do to make the sound deeper? Thought about doing the lollipop thing.

Any ideas guys and gals?

Dave

Slap some Big City Thunder, Thunder Monster baffles in there and they should cure that problem. I had some Bub Stubbies on my FXLR and they rocked with the BCT.

you can try adding torque cones. But I'm pretty sure the baffles are removable, at least they were on my old man's sporty that had the rip saws.

if memory serves me I think the ripsaws have a downward turnout on the end thats not a tip, but a bend.

I had the original Rip Saws on my 2005 Fat Boy SE. They are drag pipes and don't come with baffles. Newer generation Rip Saws are bigger in diameter and have baffles.

I put the exhaust delima to rest while indid other mods.

The rip saw i have, according to Samson have "non removable" baffles. The turn down is a bend so I see no way of adding another baffle.

I feel I dont have the low torque i should have. Would it be worth trying a lollipops.

I have aquired a set of Vh big shots just not ready to install them yet.

All thoughts apreciated

had them on my Kawasaki 1600 Meanstreak, no one wanted to ride behind me. When i'd crack the throttle they would kick up a lot of dirt from the road and the HD boys would cry like Babies that it was going to mess up their paint..
