LA Choppers CurveDD Exhaust Video? 1 Month, 2 Weeks ago  
Just wondering if anyone has a vid of the CurveDD pipes on the R*. I listened to the clip on their website but it wasn't very good quality. Thanks in advance.

I gott'em too...bought mine from another member here. I LOVE them..and they sound sooo nice without the baffles. 50Yet, I gave up on the whistle, even the new baffles didn't fix it. BUT, pull them out and man its nice! Gotta get some torque cones though

So Jason19 how did you pull the baffles and is it alot louder? I would love to get rid of the whistle. Thanks man, Fifty yet oh and did it change your jetting at all. Mine is running perfect and dont want to screw it up.

Have to get back with ya for sure. Right now, I have the new baffles they sent me installed. Need to order a torque cone to put in place of the baffle. I think Curt makes them. Or there is a distributor for LAC that has them.

I took the baffles out a few weeks ago and ran it that way for about a week. I don't think it messed with my jetting, but I lost a little torque without the back pressure.

BUT, it sounded really nice! and definitely no whistle. To take out the baffle you remove the shields and there is a little screw on the back. Undo that, pull out baffle, and replace shield.

Hey guys thank you for the input. I think these are gonna be the pipes. But I thought that about the jug huggers. Decisions, decisions... I still would like to hear them, but I guess I could always turn them around if it wasn't what I was looking for. But the general consensus seems to be, these sound pretty good.
