#14969 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride! Moderator Posts: 12511 Baffles 5 Years, 4 Months ago   Well just got back from atest run from putting in the HardKrome Stright Thru Baffles. Man are they loud esp on the back down. Think I may have to do the sink strainer mod to tone them down.   Logged     My Site Black Ice is Shiny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #14970 davemcconville (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 23 Re:Baffles 5 Years, 4 Months ago   It's always a delicate balance between being heard and not pissing off everyone in your neighborhood. I installed Cobra LoBoys, and while they sound great to me, my neighbors look at me differently now!   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #14971 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride! Moderator Posts: 12511 Re:Baffles 5 Years, 4 Months ago   But I love my pipes I just have to tweak them to get the sound the way I want them. I didn't care for the stock baffle sound thes are closer to what I want but they are a little harsh on the backoff.   Logged     My Site Black Ice is Shiny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #14983 DocShadow (Admin) Hmmmm .... send beer Admin Posts: 17615 Re:Baffles 5 Years, 4 Months ago   I have a Tech Tip written by rmruder on Custom Baffles for Hard-Krome Big Straights that is in the process of being posted.

Moderator Posts: 12511 Re:Baffles 5 Years, 4 Months ago   Well I tried the Strainer thing and that puts it back like the stock baffles that came with the HardKrome K2 pipes. I tried a mod of my own and it didn't make much differance. I'll send you my e-mail address. I may just fab my own as I have a mig and actylene rig.   Logged     My Site Black Ice is Shiny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #14987 Musky (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 15137 Re:Baffles 5 Years, 4 Months ago   Didn't someone roll up chicken wire and stick it in the pipes with good results. Should take minimal engineering to design.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #14988 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride! Moderator Posts: 12511 Re:Baffles 5 Years, 4 Months ago   Hey I am going to make glasspacks that are just like stock baffles that will bolt right in and sell em.   Logged     My Site Black Ice is Shiny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #15048 Big Bear (Moderator) Who loves you , Baby? Moderator Posts: 6997 Re:Baffles 5 Years, 4 Months ago   Curt, not really sure if this would work or not (because of pipe dia. , yours vrs. V&H), but V&H makes an optional "quiet" baffle that fits inside their longshot and others that really tones down the bark. If they are the same size pipe, could work for you.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #15053 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride! Moderator Posts: 12511 Re:Baffles 5 Years, 4 Months ago   I still have the stock baffles that came with the bike but don't like the sound Doc sent me an article and it is just about what I was thinking about doing with the straight thru baffles. I am going to cut them apart and put fiberglass in them and weld them back togeather and put them in. That should give me the sound I am looking for. With a little work. Heck I never can leave anything alone just gotta jack with stuff.   Logged     My Site Black Ice is Shiny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #15096 snowman48 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 65 Re:Baffles 5 Years, 4 Months ago   Hey Curt, do u have the 3" drags from HardKrome?? I didn't realize they had baffles. Will I need to re-jet or anything if I take them out. I'm a rookie here so bear with me, lol. I asume by taking out the baffles the bike becomes much louder?? Thanks in advance.   Logged     http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q291/snowman48/Bike.jpg[/IMG]   The administrator has disabled public write access.
