Default Back pressure

I'm thinking about putting some Big Radius pipes on my 06 Springer but I'm hearing that they don't have enough back pressure on them. Has anyone heard about problems with that?

I had my bike dynoed with the stock pipes, Big Radius with stock baffles, Big Radius with Thunder Monster baffles. The torque was the same with all 3. So there was no problem with back pressure. I was the same as stock exhaust

All I know is that when I get an aftermarket exhaust system, I would want not only a great sound, but I would want a gain in HP and torque....at least a little gain anyway.&nbsp\\; Don't get me wrong, the radius looks friggin awsome.&nbsp\\; As a matter of fact, I was debating on either the radius pipes or my short shots.

Changing just the pipes wont give you either. The dyno does'nt lie
