Big Radius Baffle Modification
I know the topic of V&H Big Radius pipes comes up often, and I apologize... With that, I removed my baffles last night and had some questions. First, the sound is really odd. It sounds like an old muscle car, not a motorcycle. Next, as expected I lost low end torque. With that, I'm curious have any of you modified the OEM baffles? If yes, how much did you remove and what was the impact to the sound?

RE: Big Radius Baffle Modification
I bought the BCT baffles for my big radius pipes and attempted the install yesterday as well.
Problem was the first baffle came out with no issues but the second one would not budge. at all. even after applying heat. Any ideas on what to do? I didn't realize the stock V&H baffles were so long.
My suggestion would be not to mess with the stock baffles. I have a friend who did the BCT's and they work and sound awesome.

As far asI know they make one espicially for the BR pipe because of the curve

As far as removing the stock baffles....I used a seal puller. It worked great.
