I went black, here are the pics. Its got the standard baffle. RSD air cleaner. I have been out a couple of more times, and they have sounded much more tolerable. Maybe just a sensitive day??? I did order the smartpartz baffles.
I used an IPhone decibel meter today. My bike at idle was 93 to 94 decibels at idle standing to either side. Reving the throttle to 2500 to 3000 rpms increased the decibels to 97/98. Did the same test with my wife's Nightster with Rush slip-ons and saw 90 decibels at idle and 94/95 leaning on the throttle.

Guess I just have to wear earplugs all the time.
