Default Python Longshots Baffle Question...

Guys,

Not really concerned yet with making the bike a power house, no funds at the time and I am really just enjoying riding it. I love the way this bike sounds now, but would be interested to see what it would be like without the baffles.

Does this really hurt the low end by removing any backpressure they may provide? Is it not even noticeable?

If anyone has a clip of an 88 with python staggered long shots no baffles let me know!

Thank you.

JTR

Just pull them out and fire it up and see for yourself. It will probably suffer a little with the torque, but if you like the sound you can look at something like thunder torque inserts. It's super easy to pull the baffles, or reinstall them if you want to. Why mess with utube videos when you have the real thing in your garage?

Haha read my mind! It is just warming up here in Chitown so you can guess what I was going to do today. Problem is I cannot ride it since the roads are horseshit with holes and salt everywhere. Just thought I would see if someone with a similar setup has done this.
