Just to ensure we are in sync about removing the packing idea, can you give me a true idea of how loud the sound will be. With the baffles totally out it's simply crazy and I'm almost affraid to remove the packing and have a too offensive sound. Do you feel that the removed packing gives you a deeper or simply louder sound. I'll deal with the back pressure issues after the fact i guess. I do understand that you are simply saying remove the packing, but i just want to ensure it a good moves to make prior to doing so as I dont want to have to wait for another set of baffles if its too much NOISE..

The fiberglass Packing has Masking Tape around the baffle holding it in place, Take a razor blade and carefully slice thru the masking tape, and un roll the baffle and remove the packing and steel wool, It will come off in one clean REUSABLE PIECE. Reinstall the Naked Baffle and your tip and start your bike and go for a short ride. If you don't like what you hear, Simply reinstall the fiberglass packing with new masking tape and your back to where you were. My fiberglass packing went in to the garbage can and I have no back fire or back pressure issues whatsoever....Good luck and let us know how you made out Mike.
