The 3" V&H slip-ons that are on my bike are actually pretty heavily baffled. Speaking strictly for myself of course, I sometimes spend a lot of hours on the road and as much as I enjoy the sound of a Harley, after a while the roar of loud pipes takes away from the experience for me. I guess I'm just getting to be an old fogey, but I want to hear my music....

Next up, better shocks!
Yep, I am looking to get a tuner this spring also.

Yep, and the only reason I have not done it is because I heard they can be a real beast to change after several thousands of miles, almost like they are burnt in.

I agree on this, but I like louder pipes just to irritate the neighbors every now and again.... They are a few neighbors who deserve it.
