What year is your bike. When i did my 2013 SG the right and left baffles were definitely different from each other, in order to remove the right side you had to grind away the entire baffle at the weld or it wouldn't come out.

 

2014 street glide special. no problems getting them out. both sides came out the same.

 

Nick, do you have any pictures of the right side removal? Videos that you reference don't really show detailed images of the work being done. That is my only hangup right now in pulling mine is the right side. I have 13 SG as well. I don't think I would remove the insulation and mesh, just the core.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I plan on using a 3 inch hole saw due to the fact I don't have a small dremel or grinding wheel.

 

I wonder if changing the whole exhaust system out voids warranty? Getting rid of the cats would be nice..

 

Uhhhhh....NO.

2010 Limited with some stuff

 

I have attached a pic. Do i cut at A, B or C? None of the pictures or videos I have seen depict the exact cutting location very good.

And what did you do to get the right side out. Was it difficult to remove because of the cone at the header end?

 

Don't listen to the nay sayers... I just helped my friend do this to his 14 and it sounds bitchen. JUST AS GOOD as a set of slip on's!!!!!

Such horseshit gets posted in here...


To see how it's actually done youtube "baffle removal 2013 street glide"

All it takes is an hours time, 3" hole saw and a die grinder. Total cost is about $30 bucks. I would recommend leaving in your cat for a little back pressure.
Shoot me a PM if you have any questions

OS

 

I just noticed Nick and Flyboy posted the videos you need...
I followed their instructions and helped a friend save about $600...


My friend is so happy with his I doubt he will buy a set of slip ons, probably just move to an ape hanger install

 

We used a 3" hole saw which cut most of the baffle completely out. I think the inside dia of the pipe is about 3-1/4" so you have to use a die grinder and grind an 1/8" away all around to clean it up.

You will have to ask Nick but I believe he used a die grinder with a cutoff wheel and cut weld A to remove the baffels.

The worst part about this whole process is removing the fiberglass packing... that **** itches like a bitch and it floats around in the air and gets everywhere including your *** crack.

Use gloves and long sleeve shirt. It takes about 1 - 1-1/2 hours to complete. take your time

 

Yup. What he said^^^^ a grinder is the way to go, it's quick and easy, it took me about 30 minutes to do my first one. And yes, it sounds just as good as the cookie cutter slipons everyone is using, only difference is about 700 hundred dollars more in your pocket.
